http://www.vabamu.ee Vabamu educates and involves the people of Estonia and its visitors and encourage everyone to think about the recent past, to sense the fragility of freedom, and to stand for freedom and justice. I joined the board to help the expansion of the museum from focusing on Soviet & Nazi occupations to a broader Freedom Museum concept. In addition to continuing coverage of tragic events in recent history we drive discussion around various forms of freedoms and engage the new, post-occupation generations in actively protecting their liberties in the future.
Chairman of Supervisory Board, ASI Private Equity
2006
http://www.asi.ee Ambient Sound Investments (ASI) was established in 2003 as a partnership of four founding engineers to hold their stake in Skype. After an exit to eBay in 2005, ASI operates as a private investment vehicle, managing over 100 million EUR of assets and direct investments. ASI Private Equity AS (ASIPEAS) was conceived in 2006 to allow a number of friends and colleagues from Skype to co-invest with the partnership. Working closely together at a heady pace in the early days of Skype aligned our thinking, we often share mutual interests and opinions when considering new technology ventures. With about 30 investors, ASIPEAS extends its entrepreneurs' network and competence base sevenfold. As a closed investment vehicle, ASIPEAS does not solicit funds from the general public.
