If an Entrepreneur is going to spend 16 hours a day, 7 days a week creating a company, Mads argues you might as well build it big and build it international. Sharing his wealth of incredible experience, let Mads inspire you to start your next global adventure. “Just like the saying that entrepreneurs will work 80 hours a week to avoid working 40, I believe that if you do what you truly love, it never really feels like work”
