I have had the fortune to work with Jakob as both part of our board for many years but also in a variety of operational challenges that includes high level recruitment, business strategy short and long term, funding and finance. Jakob has a very hands on practical approach to solve challenges. He has the ability to be detailed, yet keeping the focus on the bigger picture. I can only give Jakob my strongest recommendations.

      Managed a growth investment in Trustweaver in 2012 and stepped up as Chairman in 2013. Through a robust SaaS business and revenue model with strong growth the company became profitable during 2016. During 2017 and 2018 I managed an exit-project leading up to Trustweaver being acquired by Sovos Compliance, a global leading SaaS company in the Tax and Compliance space. The merger was a close to perfect fit for both companies and panned out very well for all stake holders including share holders, employees, partners, and customers. Show less
