Driving growth and Scaling up digital media & innovative tech companies
“Simon has proven highest loyalty towards the companies he worked for, he is great working in a leading position, but also and this is rarer in bringing a company/ business from 0 to 1. He is great in attracting and motivating talented team members, building up a crystal clear company strategy and closing strategic deals like a sniper. I trust Simon and would offer him to run any business I am involved in.”
Nils HenningCEO, Casafari & Serial Entreprenuer/Investor
