- Lix Technologies — "At Lix, we’re passionate about learning. Not that we’re a bunch of nerds; we’re just all students – currently or formerly enrolled. Our fairly young team is a blend of experienced heads and raw minds who all agree, that the coffee brewer is the most appreciated piece of machinery at our office. We also share a common feeling that studyingis too troublesome: textbooks are heavy weight, a financial horror, time-consuming to acquire, and not in sync with technology. That’s why Lix happened.Besides solving the practical aspects mentioned just before, we envision Lix as the game changer within learning platforms.Students should have the best possible conditions for learning. So should publishers who convey the learning material, the professors who pick out the curriculum, and the enterprises who educate their trainees. While we fuel our engines with ambition and vision, we’re fortunate to have a group of advisors and investors on board to help Lix make the greatest impact possible."

My core business philosophy is built on the idea of thinking “we before me” – to move from a narrow perspective and to think of the bigger picture. Therefore it may appear quite contradictory to launch a personal website which, regardless of perspective, revolves and turns around one self. But my aim with this website is to branch out beyondmy usual activities, while simultaneously using the site as a digital connection to my businesses within the Thornico Group (www.Thornico.com). Within this company we are involved in shipping, technology, the food industry, real estate, fashion and sports. All the mentioned companies share the core values of Company karma. This site should give an insight into what inspirations that lies behind the value based approach and the way we overall do business in the Thornico group. Hopefully, the website also provides a needlepoint into what has shaped and formed my other more private lifestyle choicesIn addition to this, the site will function as a distribution network in terms of information and news in regards to my books, when and where I give lectures and talks. I will share content, interests, personal thoughts and sources of inspiration here.
