Søren Alminde
Unridden Founder & CEO
Søren has 25+ years of entrepreneurial hands-on expertise to his name, with notable achievements including the creation and growth of Euroinvestor and Boliga.
These ventures have significantly influenced the financial and real estate industries.
Euroinvestor
Objective : to democratize the financial markets
Euroinvestor, co-founded by Søren Alminde and his brother Jens Alminde, emerged as an innovative online financial portal in 1997.
Acknowledging the demand for convenient access to financial information and analysis, the Alminde brothers created a platform that offered investors and traders real-time stock quotes, market news, and comprehensive financial data.
The primary objective of Euroinvestor was to democratize the financial markets, ensuring that individuals could acquire the knowledge to invest independently.
A crucial aspect of this mission was the Euroinvestor social network, which enabled peer-to-peer learning among investors, predating the emergence of social media platforms like Facebook.
Euroinvestor underwent an initial public offering (IPO) on the Nasdaq OMX Copenhagen stock exchange in 2007, lead by the Alminde brothers.
In 2011, Saxo Bank made the decision to acquire Euroinvestor. However, in 2013, the Alminde brothers regained control of the company with the support of new investors. Eventually, Euroinvestor was sold to Berlingske Media.

Boliga
Objective : to democratize the real estate markets
Boliga was established in 2007 with a similar vision: to democratize the real estate markets by ensuring equal access to information for both buyers and sellers.
Prior to Boliga, individuals could only access the information that sellers chose to disclose in official property listings.
Boliga revolutionized this by offering users independent and current property listings, historical price data, and comprehensive market insights.
Further products from Euroinvestor/Boliga included:
Valutakurser.dk, InvestorRelations.dk, UdenomBanken.dk, itvang.dk, selvsalg.dk, Tilstandsrapport.dk and more.
Exit Euroinvestor & Boliga
Following his exit from Euroinvestor and Boliga, Søren now serves as a mentor to aspiring entrepreneurs and invests in promising startups.
Now Unridden Ventures
Søren decided to create Unridden Ventures as a company fully focused on helping startups succeed. Unridden focuses mostly on very early stage startup teams who is not yet ready to talk to larger, later stage venture companies.
Unridden seeks to mature the companies and work closely with VC’s with the intention to create investment opportunities.
