Gert Ravn studied electrical engineering at Aalborg University, where he earned a B. Sc. degree in 1988, specializing in acoustics and digital signal processing. He joined the Technical-Audiological Laboratory (TAL) in Odense in 1988, which was merged into DELTA 1994, which again was merged with FORCE in 2017. He has been managing TAL until 2012, where he was promoted as Senior technology specialist for audiology and hearing aids. Gert Ravn has over the years contributed to the development of formalized test methods for hearing aids, incl. e.g. the first international standard for tests of electromagnetic interference in hearing aids, the IEC 60118-13 standard in 1996. Gert Ravn holds several positions of confidence, among other as the chairman of IEC TC 29 WG 13 ”Hearing aids” (since 1994) – a position, for which he received the IEC 1906 award in 2007.
