“My dream is to create a cool community for a lot of passionate, ambitious and enterprising people who are on their way to achieving their own dreams.
I believe that my experience, knowledge and skills will help others on their path to success. Also, it is no secret that I of course keep my eyes and ears open to interesting new investments,” said , owner and chairman of VISTI UNLIMITED.
In addition, VISTI UNLIMITED announced a collaboration agreement with TERADYNE, the owner of MiR and Universal Robots, and global leader in collaborative robots with $2.3B in sales in 2019. TERADYNE CEO Mark Jagiela noted, “Universal Robots and MiR have given TERADYNE insight into the unique automation capabilities in the Odense community.

As a business developer, she has previously led digital business development in Jysk Fynske Medier, commercial president in the advertising industry, and most recently owned her own consultancy. Together with Visti, she will offer strategic advice and will be responsible for attracting the right companies to the site. Together they will also each draw on their professional network to create optimal opportunities for networking and collaboration.
“There are lots of exciting startups in Denmark, and it is a dream to help bring some of them together. We have a large and attractive space, close to the city center and yet close to the motorway. And we can promise some amenities that are a little out of the ordinary. The most important thing is that there is good energy, so it becomes a place for people who want to support each other. Being a startup or more established company doesn’t determine whether one can become part of the community. We believe that both types of companies can give each other something,” said Anne Mejdal.
Companies not located at Helgavej 26, Odense, will also have access to several events and activities in the house. An opening reception for VISTI UNLIMITED will be held on September 11, 2020.
