Knut is a member of the firm’s Portfolio Performance Committee (PPC) and Valuation Committee.

Robin Muerer and Ulrik Smith, Co-Managing Partners at FSN Capital, said: “Electing new partners is one of the most important decisions we take as a firm and as a partnership. For all promotions in the firm, we consider two dimensions: impact and values. In addition to their strong impact and contribution to the firm, all three new elected partners are true role models when it comes to living our firm values and leading their teams.”
