alarm:clock euro Puzzler - On the Board, Not Bored
A couple of weeks ago we posted that Preben Damgaard, had invested in e-sport startup Regroup. Because he is one of the more successful Euro tech entrepreneurs - he co-founded Damgaard Data A/S in 1983, listed it in 1999, merged with smaller rival Navision, and then sold the ERP venture to Microsoft for $1.55B in 2002, we followed up with him to find out more.
Damgaard told us by email that he actually has several such investments and is quite busy advising and working with the teams. Damgaard is also an advisor to a European early stage VC firm and sits on the board of at least one of its recent investment, which leads us to this week's quiz question:
What is the name of the VC firm that counts Preben Damgaard as one of its six advisory board members?
A clue is that the managing general partner of this fund also worked at Damgaard's ERP company as a biz dev, sales manager, and several other management roles.
The first and 10th reader to write in with the correct answer will win fame if not fortune by being profiled here. We would like to be able to offer the winners a free week of driving the Lexus gas-electric hybrid SUV, dubbed the RX400h, but the promoters of that cleaner-conscience vehicle are not jamming our phone lines with offers.
