I have always been an entrepreneur – at the age of 4 I remember seeing a gap in the market for an outdoor subway system to transport my Playmobil characters. That eye for a business opportunity has been with me ever since! School bored me but a teacher who saw my potential said I should move abroad to learn some languages. This led me to spending some time in the US - at one point ending up on a 35-day tour of the country. Back in Europe, I skipped most of my college classes as the 8-track sound recorder I had borrowed was far more fun. I started posting ads in the local paper offering cheap recordings to musicians. I bought components to build speakers and then turned to live music,.
