Anders Wall’s 80th birthday party

Friday, March 11th, 2011

I am currently in Stockholm to celebrate one of the greatest men alive, Anders Wall, on his 80th birthday. The day is packed with events and tonight we will have a grand dinner and party at Grand Hôtel, where I also happen to stay for this occasion (thanks SCC). Yesterday we had a dinner with Young Entrepreneurs of Sweden at Buco Nero. 25 entrepreneurs as well as very good friends of mine joined me for a nice evening. So glad that so many came. Now I am going to power nap since we have a short break in the action-packed programme.

Here’s a picture of Anders and Mia from the lunch we just had with Wallumni.

Speak soon.

Tallinn with Wallumni

Wednesday, September 22nd, 2010

I have four exciting days in front of me. Tomorrow I am flying to Stockholm to say I quick hello to my colleagues and friends at YEoS Venture Lab and then meet up with approx. 45 Wallumi’s and Mr Anders Wall himself at the harbour. From there we are suposed to take the night ferry to Tallinn for a three days study trip. The programme seems to be very intense. We are going to visit a lots of companies, the Finance Minister who apparently used to be Estonia’s Premier Minister, Sweden’s Ambassador to Estonia, and I am sure we will meet a lot of interesting people. Really looking forward to the trip.

The Anders Wall Scholarship

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

Yesterday was a great day, an awesome day, the day of days; Anders Wall‘s birthday and the price ceremony for the Anders Wall Scholarships. As you might know I was one of the scholars. At the ceremony I met A LOT of interesting people and I was treated like royalty! On top of this I almost nailed my speech of thanks. Good times indeed.

I am very honoured and thankful to Anders Wall for this opportunity I have been given. The scholarship is for 150 000 SEK + an internship at the Swedish Chamber of Commerce in London for one year. I will be moving down in May. Really looking forward to! But I’m still looking for a place to stay.

Here’s a picture of me and the ten other scholars together with Anders.
