The last 3 weeks has been incredibly hard in regards to the fact that 2 major things in my life are just about to happen. It’s now the 1st march 2010 – and non of the above has happened – yet. But I imagine they can’t wait much longer due to the fact that they both are inevitable.
As an entrepreneur I have always been very restless – I need to see things happen, when I execute them.
This time, it has been a very hard battle and alot of thoughts has been put in to securing the plans being perfect. This counts for the two – probably most important things that will happen for med this year – and maybe also counting 2011 in this equation too.
One of the above mentioned major things is the birth of my new baby girl. My wife was set to the 24th february – and if you look at the date – well you can see that it is a problem. It’s like going in robot mode fixing all things in daily life meaning, work, playing with my two kids, cleaning, talking, eating are suddenly just means to kill time, because, well, you are waiting.
The second major thing is my new venture Copenhagen Shipping Exchange. We have come to the point that the business plan has been completed, strategic and tactical plans have been scheduled and Lead Investor is going in. We started february with a visit from our Bostonian based Lead Investor in Copenhagen. An incredible week that strengthened the connection and an amazing amount of business development was made. Our investor though has an incredible network, and we have all agreed that we should try to invite some of them into the venture in order to fill out even more weakness points – so all areas can be covered. At this point – the founders – have done what they can – and all what is left to do is to wait for their participation. We hope to present the wildest owner team enabling us to create the venture and create a huge success for all stakeholders – especially the market – that are screaming for help – but for now we must wait for the term sheet to be signed… – so waiting – It’s all just a big waiting game.
