Renamed enfore AG, the company launched a platform for small business in March 2017 connecting online services, software and hardware ( PoS terminals). After four years of development, Börries gathered 38 million USDs from financial investors in mid 2013. The company developed an open software platform ( PaaS) for the development, distribution and marketing of vertical solutions for small businesses. On 1 September 2009, Marco Börries launched his latest business idea, NumberFour AG, based in Berlin. Until 2008 Börries lived with his wife and three children in California, but then moved to Hamburg and Berlin in Germany. VerdiSoft including its technology know-how was sold to Yahoo in February 2005, where Börries worked as an Executive Vice President in the Connected Life division until April 2009. The company developed the Yahoo! Go technology to enable mobile phones to have screen-optimized access to emails, photos, messages and other web content. In August 2001, Börries founded VerdiSoft and served as its CEO. In early 2001, Börries sold his shares in this company as well. With StarMoney the company grew to become a significant provider of home banking software in the years following. In parallel to Star Division Börries also founded the Hamburg-based company Star Finanz as a joint venture with Deutsche Sparkassen-Organisation, a German savings bank. On 5 August 1999 Börries sold Star Division to Sun Microsystems, where Börries also subsequently briefly employed. StarOffice was sold over 25 million times. StarWriter later became StarOffice (and thereby was the foundation to OpenOffice and LibreOffice). As its first product the company distributed StarWriter, a word processor application developed by friends, as an alternative to Microsoft's office package. Inspired by a student exchange program to Silicon Valley while he attended a Gymnasium in Lüneburg, Marco Börries founded Star Division as a garage company at the age of 16.
