The people building Twinno's mission to give growth companies and the capital providers who back them a better way to think, commit, and stay aligned.
Founders
Karen Stub Panteloukas — Founder & CEO
📍 Copenhagen, Denmark
Karen is the Founder and CEO of Twinno, responsible for setting vision, leading execution, and building the organization across product, strategy, partnerships, and capital planning. She combines startup leadership with deep enterprise experience, drawing on more than two decades in executive and commercial roles across technology, consulting, and digital transformation. Before founding Twinno, Karen served as Vice President of Sales for Northern Europe at T-Systems, Sales Director at Accenture, and held multiple leadership and consulting roles at IBM. Throughout her career she has built high-performing teams, led complex go-to-market transformations, and worked closely with C-suites, founders, and investors on growth, alignment, and organizational change. Karen has founded and advised startups, developed new operating models, and led initiatives at the intersection of AI, strategy, and business design. She is motivated by creating clarity, enabling strong leadership teams, and guiding companies through growth and transformation.
"Too many founders run out of runway chasing money instead of building clarity. I started Twinno to help founders see what matters sooner — so they can grow on their terms, with courage and partners who truly align."

Søren Degn Jahns — Co-Founder & CTO
📍 Copenhagen, Denmark
Søren brings deep product and engineering leadership to Twinno, shaped by more than two decades of building mission-critical platforms in highly regulated industries. As Founder and CTO of Insurance Business Applications (IBA), he led the design and development of a cloud-native insurance platform built from the ground up — architecting scalable SaaS infrastructure, overseeing Product and R&D, and aligning DevOps, Security, Support, and Compliance into a single, high-performance delivery organization. His experience spans complex data models, workflow automation, multi-tenant architecture, and enterprise-grade reliability — all essential foundations for Twinno's AI-driven, collaborative platform. Prior to IBA, Søren held senior technology leadership roles at Oracle, Acando, and Intec, where he drove digital transformation initiatives, managed cross-functional teams, and delivered platforms used by large enterprises across Europe. At Twinno, Søren focuses on building a secure, scalable, and future-proof technology backbone — enabling founders and investors to work with confidence on a platform designed to evolve as they do.
"Great ideas don't scale without disciplined engineering. Twinno is about combining foresight and technology in a way that is robust, explainable, and ready for the real world."
