Meet The People
We are decent people, making a decent return, in a decent way.
Meet Knut Kjær
Knut’s passion for sailing and nature has stayed with him since he first captained his own sailboat at the age of 8. His experiences on the sea have influenced his perspectives on life, business, and investing. Respect for nature is his guiding star.

Meet Talitha Kirchner

With her freshly acquired paragliding license, she'll soon be soaring above the mountains as well. Talitha is also an opera enthusiast, with festivals in Germany, Italy, and the English countryside to look forward to this year.
Talitha is a climber and an opera enthusiast. And at work, Talitha is an Investment Director in our Munich office, sourcing and executing investments and working with portfolio companies.
Meet Ingvild Sætre Ellingsen
Ingvild grew up in close contact with nature on the west coast of Norway – and as a youngster she used to run up the steep hillsides on her doorstep.
On moving to Oslo for her professional life - she now runs up the alpine ski slopes on the outskirts of town to help connect her back to the beautiful slopes of her childhood. And at work, Ingvild is our Finance Manager in our Oslo office.
Meet Vincent Wahl
When he’s not behind the computer, Vincent can usually be found in the great outdoors – doing action sports, such as skiing or climbing, or simply enjoying the views while sailing or hiking.
Vincent is a thrill-seeker who rarely shies away from new adventures. And at work, he’s a Manager in the Digital team in our Oslo office.
Meet Robin Muerer
At age 19, Robin spent an entire summer saving up money for a Greyhound trip across the US. When he arrived in Los Angeles, his feel for good investments led him to this black Gibson guitar. Today, it's a great source of pride and enjoyment, and you can find him strumming on it every once in a while. You'll also find him leading deals in our Munich office, where he is based, as one of our Co-Managing Partners.
