Summary
I'm passionate about building companies and Internet services. As Spotify's first employee and CTO I was responsible for the product and platform architecture as well as hiring a world-class engineering team, of which many have gone on to become successful entrepreneurs on their own. After Spotify I co-founded Wrapp, a mobile online-to-offline customer acquisition service for bricks-and-mortar retailers that raised money from prominent investors including Atomico and Greylock (with Niklas Zennström and Reid Hoffman joining the board), went head-to-head against a Rocket Internet clone and at one point set up offices in 18 countries from Taiwan to Brazil. Now I'm learning about the world through ten countries in five years and am open for consulting gigs, advisory roles and angel investing. https://approach.world/
