Our consulting shop had a kickoff yesterday – what a team.

Jakobs rules

I think I have to learn to cope with it – but Im so bad at loosing. Today I just got a call from three guys whom Ive been helping A LOT – A LOT – and even given quite a portion of money. They told me that they LOST MY MONEY – and even though Im 100% responsible for their existence (money, network, distribution partners…) – they have choosen to forget about me – and leave me in the cold. I feel like smashing windows and shouting really loud – and going after all the connections I made them and stop it. But But But – I want to be professional . and loose with pride. And see my help and gentleness become a finacial loss. FUCK – that was good to get it out of my system.

Now I will whistle some Roge Whitaker and pretend that Im a Jogi ;)

At the LundKenner office we have a lot of great pople dropping by. Im a sucker for talent – and I love when 3 cocky young guys drrop by and tell me how the media industry works and how they will impact it by mobile ideas ;) I love it.

We are very involved with the new Danish paper – and yesterday we lauched the editors blog – at this pretty VERY GOOD DOMAIN – Avisen.dk (equal to Paper or ThePaper.com). Its simple – just the editors notes. He still has a bit to learn – in terms of writing short and precise. I must say that the impacts seems quite sustantial just see this (trafic the day after)

I oftenly (or say cronicly) have a bad hair day. And I recently heard from one of my wifes girlfriends about the notion: Dårlig Lår Dag, when she looks fat.. Today I have had a Bad Brain Day – and the result has been that my communications with EVERY SINGLE PERSON has ended up in crap. Very strange. Normally I get trough months without one dispute – and today was one big dispute on EVERYTHING I touched. Even this post is strange. Fuck today. I will go to bed.

Ive had quite some ventures and Ive consulted as many. But nothing ever took of like our Advertising/Consulting company – where Soren and Jakob Langemark just hires the best people and gets the most amazing accounts. Langemark is one of those few Danes who can really make it MEGA BIG. And I cant express how proud I am to work with him.

Even though he cant find a name for our agenzy :(

At LundKenner we where invited to invest in Nyhedsavisen and did comit to do so in srping – its an Icelandic newspaper company comming to Denmark with the simple idea of giving people a free morning paper. Simple – Clear – Disruptive and Visionary. I did UNDERESTIMATE the reaction from the established press. (But Im so blinded by vision and evolution – and my idealism). They have now all of them (the competing establisment) launched a paper – and no wonder they are AGRESSIVE – and write things about the Icelandics that are on the edge of true (lets say creative). And we will get a lot of heat. The venture is VERY AGRESSIVE and will erase minimum one of the invovled companies – if not two! And – dear values reader – I love it. Specially becasue this deal meets my number one criteria: GOOD PEOPLE. Svend Dam is really really good.
– comments are wellcome.

Zyb got a lot of press

Sometimes (if not all the time) we forget how though this business of technologi and ideas is. Today I got a reminder. See above. Translated:

Sorry to tell you that the company is closed down – and therefor todays meeting is canceled.

Thanx for your interest.

VENTURES
We have now got 41 companies in our web.
Small and big ownership.
*our struggle is to make expectations meet – and get people to understand that we are not money.

DVERTISING / CONSULTING
We have now created our own agency – due our backgrounds, the needs of our ventures, and Jakob Langemark who can execute this like a Robin Hood.

*This Agency is not about predefined smart-ass advertising: Its about selling 8000 fridges if that’s what the client need to get done.
**to be VERY clear – we do NOT invest by FORCING PEOPLE TO USE OUR AGENCY!
FUNDS
We are part of creating 4 funds and looking to do more…

*quite new for us – but starting a fund is VERY much about entrepreneurship and drive – and we have been bringing value to Fund Drivers. The fund are Chinese Real Estate, Indian Technology, Middle East Private Eqt. with focus on tech and green, European Technology, Global Biotech / Medical Devices / MediTech..

And yes – dear valued reader – its overwhelming – and we are moving fast as a missile – around the work new areas and new geographic areas. And I really hope that our Moms and Wifes and Kids will be proud one day . Since its hard to see who we are really doing this to impress ;)

I have put some of our companies into Alexa Compare good way to get some understanding – but offcourse nothing to navigate after.

Its really strange how my playfull brain just jumps onto new things – to stay teased and occupied and learning. Ive earlier stated that robots are on the radar – and now Finance is also starting to be daily on the radar. Not stocks and shit – thats not for me – somehow its does not move me. But the big LBOs (Kapital buying enourmous companies – by restructuring their dept – and hedgefunds doing their good/bad impact – and now Im trying to find my way into that jungle – with HIGH ETICHS and 100% MORAL. It seems very simple – NOT EASY. … more to come.

Quiet please something is comming the the internet canlas near you… There are many things to say about Niklas and Janus – but you cant call them open nor big mouthed. Im a lot around them – and my close friends have been working on The Venice Porject for a long time – AND I HAVE NO CLUE ABOUT IT :)

Seems like bizz week has got some sneak info

I had a meeting with Mathias – who as a small poker impire – and I must say that Im facinated by the growth. Also with tolls and services around POKER.

Its still not official and still kind of secret – but I have to tell my dear highly valed readers this. Soren, J and Me – has started an Ad Agency with a VERY SIMPLE MISSION: We help clients create, grow and keep profitable customers. In other words – we will make things happen and sell stuff for companies.

This is in addition to – and unlike LundKenner Ventures where we will focus on taking good ideas and companies to next level.

There is a lot a HUGE battles in the air rigth now. I love the FON idea(backed by Google and Ebay) – but Im afraid that its to nerdy and to loose in its execution (the APs are not really working).

I HATE expesive WIFI hotspots – fuck Boingo and those guys.

I love my Wimax from Clearwire ( see .com here )- and the 4km range. Now Intel and Motorola will support Clearwire – and it will be a fun war to follow: Clearwire gets 900mio USD from Moto and Intel

I have never had doubts about Biomega bikes style and impact – but I was never sure weather it was Jens Martin who bougth Newton at the perfect time – or what was going on. But now that I see the stuff comming out of www.skibstedid.com – IM IMPRESSED. What a talent.

Im so afraid of becomming one of those carrecters who – has an opinion on everything and comments on everything. I dont really have all my opinions cleared out – and I oftenly doubt in all kinds of matters. Weird – since i thougth that one would have 100% clear ideas about everything when – one got GROWN UP. Hmmm.

Today I was for real put into category by the danish press as: The Skype Millionaire – and wholly FUCK – I think thats silly. Well OK I had a big hit – but I was starting and selling businesses a decade before Skype was even invented. And my first big his Neo Ideo was in 1999. OK – it not that bad – and there are people who go hungry to bed – so who am I to complain (well Im maybe a MEGA Narcisisist ?).

The reason for the writing is that LundKenner will go into the new free daily “distributed to 500.000 homes” newspaper: Nyhedsavisen and assist on the online part.

I met Martin from FON.com – this weekend at Janus birthday (what a party). Martin was very very impressive – and off course he is – since he got Google and Skype to invest 18mio USD in his idea. The idea of THE PEOPLE WIFI NETWORK – an idea that was one of the original idea for Skyper (yes it was Skyper in the begining). After talking to Martin – I see how importent the SALES SKILLS ARE – since FON was never the best software/solution – Mygdal and Nyholms Organic was/is better but they are not as good at sales and seduction ;)

UPDATE Martins blog
