About Me

I am Head of Corporate / M&A in Copenhagen, with a particular focus on the tech & comms, retail & consumer, media, entertainment & sports sectors.

My main focus is on M&A and I have extensive experience negotiating and advising on business transfers on the Danish market.

I have advised both Danish and international companies, as well as private equity funds, on M&A transactions. In the last decade I have advised on some of the most notable transactions in the Danish market, including multibillion EUR transactions.

Before focusing on M&A, I previously worked at one of the most prominent IP law departments in Denmark, which has provided me with significant insight into the business of and the challenges faced by companies where the IP rights are the main asset. I am therefore particularly strong on M&A transactions for such companies, including companies within the tech, fashion, design and media industries.

As one of Denmark's leading sports and entertainment legal experts, I also have extensive experience advising film companies, production companies, advertising agencies and athletes on sports and entertainment law: for example, in connection with production agreements, player contracts, sponsorship agreements and management agreements.
