Thorsten started his computer science career in the early 80s, when he had a multicolor Mohawk haircut and computers were the size of garages.
His first business was a one-man consulting company for the programming language Smalltalk, which grew to have offices in several countries, profitable subsidiaries and inspiring partners.
From his employees he learned that power comes from simplicity, and that you only have to dig deep enough to find a really elegant and simple solution. After selling his first venture he travelled as a business angel, warning other entrepreneurs about his mistakes. At the same time, he invested in startups and started ventures in the sustainable business area.
Thorsten tries to blend economic interests and social responsibility – just as Kumbayja does.
