SPECIALIST IN SCALING AND EXECUTING

Torben has many years of experience as an investor and Business Angel. He is strategic, analytical and a specialist in scaling and execution.

Torben has many years of experience in entrepreneurship. Having been on both sides of the table, he has a keen eye for spotting start-ups with talent and the potential to scale. Once the talent is spotted, he ensures the chemistry is right. This is crucial for a good collaboration where the goal is to get them to listen to what he says and not just do what he says.

Torben works best with 1000 balls flying in the air at once, which he is a master at controlling. This is evident in the great commitment he makes to several companies. In addition to the great work he does at TPC Management, he is also chairman and/or investor in more than 25 other companies.

Personally, Torben is very aware of the people around him. For him, it’s important that everyone feels good and thrives – it gives good energy and motivation. He is positive, hardworking and always tries to wear his yes hat – also in the gym, where he lifts 200 kilos in the deadlift, while he can name most of the players in the NLF.

Torben is a man in a hurry, but when he reaches Friday evening, he has to land on top of an exciting and busy week. He does this with a glass of wine on Tanken 16’s roof terrace, or in the company of good friends.
