Senior Investment Director

Per believes it’s important to focus on maximizing possibilities rather than minimizing risks. Over the years he’s spent working with early-stage investments, he’s learned not to wait for problems to show up. His advice is to make sure you always have a backup plan ready to go.

But the most important thing for him is finding an idea he can relate to, be it solving the future energy demand or making people happier.
