Mark Morris brings with him over 35 years of executive management experience principally in the field of fuel distribution, airline and overnight package services and financial organizations. Over the last 15 years he has been the Chairman and CEO of software companies that were combined into the Morris Global Group, Ltd. a holding company specializing in Artificial Intelligence in the medical and security fields.
From 1999 to 2008 he was CEO of Primaris Airlines, a U.S. airline holding all three DOT and FAA certificates - International Scheduled Airline (Flag), Domestic Scheduled and Supplemental Airline for cargo and passengers and partnered with Boeing Commercial Aircraft Co. on this venture. After two years as a temporary President of a small defense company, he moved to Russia to negotiate certain sensitive issues with the Russian Federation. He commuted between London and Moscow for over seven years. He also negotiated sensitive and economic issues with various other countries during this time.
From 1981 to 1990 he was CEO of Air One, a B-727 Scheduled airline and during this time he purchased, with GE Capital’s recently retired President and New York Life, the large air cargo operation of Interstate Airlines. Interstate Airlines flew stretched cargo DC-8 and B-727 aircraft for UPS, Emery, and the U.S. government. These two airlines merged in 1986 and when a large settlement was awarded to Interstate Airlines in 1988 from UPS, the airline liquidated with over $200 million profit distributed to the ownership and management of the airlines. Prior to the founding of these merged airlines, he started his own airline in 1975 (Petroleum Air Transport), and grew it to 25 aircraft, 21 cargo, and 4 passenger aircraft, and less than two years (September 1977) sold this company to DHL. From 1977 to 1981, he was President of DHL Air Group, then moved to CEO of DHL Worldwide, which at the time was the largest overnight package company in the world – present sales are over $150 billion USD per year. He was responsible for designing and implementing operations, marketing, and financing of this worldwide scheduled overnight cargo and passenger operation. He established, with the Civil Aeronautics Board, the first approved holding company for multiple airlines. The landmark precedent setting case with the Civil Aeronautics Board allowed common ownership, multiple board members and multiple officers (via specifically Mark Morris) of more than one airline (DHL Corp. owned 4 airlines where Mark Morris was the President, Board member of all). It currently is the historical precedent setting case for mergers within the airline industry. At the time of Mr. Morris’ tenure as CEO of DHL Worldwide, the company had over 20,000 employees operating out of 140 sort centers cities and delivered packages to over 100 countries.
During the years 1971 through 1975, Mr. Morris was Chief Pilot, Director of Operations and then promoted to General Manager for Mark Aero, Inc. one of the largest air taxi, supplemental airlines and fixed base operations in the country. From 1966 to 1969 he was a line pilot for this company while attending college. In late 1969 through 1970, he flew over 210 missions in the Asian theatre for a private company owned by the U.S. Government. Mr. Morris has worked as a consultant to various governments (from South America, Middle East, and Russia) including the U.S. Government and private institutions in Eurasia, and as senior advisor to a family foundation with bases in London and New York. Mr. Morris has served as Executive Chairman of Pentastar Capital Corp. and Managing Director of Quest Capital Corp., both investment banks, and led large acquisitions under Leveraged Buyouts and Management Buyouts.
Mr. Morris has been a guest speaker, professor and lecturer at numerous universities including Stanford, Harvard, University of Rochester, and Washington University. He has appeared frequently on both local and national television including the “Today Show” and “Window on Wall Street” (as both a panelist and guest speaker).

He was also Chairman of the state of Arkansas for the campaign and his co-chairmen were Jack Stephens of Stephens, Inc. and Sam Walton of Wal-Mart. As Chairman of the Commercial Air Carrier Association in 1976 and 1977, Mr. Morris worked closely with Al Kahn of the Civil Aeronautics Board and Senators Kennedy and Cannon to deregulate the airline industry. He has advised the former and current senior government officials within the Russian Federation, Peru, UAE and others on economic and financial matters within the confines of the U.S. State Department (Clinton Administration). In addition to holding a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics from the University of Missouri, and a Doctorate in Economics, Mr. Morris is a licensed Airline Transport Pilot with over 16,000 total hours and 11,000 hours of command time in most aircraft types, including small to large twin-engine jets (Boeing wide body jets) and large four engine aircraft.
