𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻
Early in my career, I landed a job at Gartner in London, one of the most important IT and technology advisory firms globally. I joined during the early dot-com years and experienced the rise and fall of the bubble, which burst in 2000. The job sparked my interest in technology and innovation, and in 2005, I began investing in tech companies.

Earlier this year I co-founded Horizon3 @Horizon3Invest, which is an investment fund in Denmark listed on the Danish stock exchange.

I buy and verify positions in innovative and market leading growth companies with structural tailwinds, positive cash flows, strong balance sheets and leadership teams with skin in the game.
