Thomas Wiborg Steen
Thomas Wiborg Steen
Advisor
Thomas started his entrepreneurial ventures at an age of 15 from his teenage room - building custom computers. At an age of 21 he won the startup competition Venture Cup and following that, he received his first round of investment and dropped out of university to build his first scalable tech start-up. Since then, Thomas has been part of several start-ups in different ways; both in operations, as chairman/member of the board and as an investor. When Thomas is not next to a whiteboard, you’ll find him on the water sailing, playing with his newborn son or enjoying classic movies and musicals along with a glass of wine.
