About
Fridtjof co-founded Antler with a structured "day zero" investing model that brings together thousands of individuals across continents to form co-founder teams before companies even exist, then invests as their first check—a talent-first approach he designed to systematically reduce barriers to entrepreneurship. He combines McKinsey strategy consulting experience with hands-on Nordic startup scaling experience, and has built Antler as one global platform across 20+ locations where founders can access the same culture, operating model, and advisory network regardless of which city they're in.
