"Europe’s next wave of growth lies in energy, digital infrastructure and security"

Lars co-founded Scale Capital in 2012 and leads the firm today. An entrepreneur before he was an investor, he understands both sides of Europe’s technology challenge. He spent years in Silicon Valley helping European founders break into the world’s most competitive technology market. Now, after 14 years of investing, he knows that Europe’s next generation of companies must not only win globally, but retain the technology, talent and value they create at home.
