About DoLand
At DoLand, we dream of a world where even more people can leave their mark on sustainable development. When many of us move in the same direction, we can create significant positive change.
That is why we have established a new kind of community.
A community for the new generation of investors who understand that returns and sustainability can go hand in hand.
A community for investors like you and me, who want to create a tomorrow we can be proud of.
A community where we don't just talk about change, but where we raise the bar and make it happen.
In other words: A place for you, who wants to do more.
How it all started
In 2016, Jakob Lage Hansen quit his job in the traditional banking sector to create DoLand. He had a dream of making investment accessible and giving everyone the opportunity to have a personal impact on their sustainable investments. And that's exactly what has been achieved with DoLand.
DoLand is Denmark's sustainable investment platform, where investments can be made for as little as 500 DKK, because even small investments count.
Jakob Lage Hansen
Jakob is an economist who graduated from the University of Copenhagen and Berkeley, USA. He has 16 years of experience in the investment industry, with a background in institutions such as the National Bank of Denmark, Danske Bank, SEB, and BankInvest.
Along the way, he has developed new business areas, driven change processes, been responsible for product and business strategy, and conducted in-depth market research in finance.
Curious about our name?
DoLand is a coined term that, in our opinion, precisely conveys who we are and what we stand for. We are a movement, a community, a Land for all of us who take a stance and take action. For those of us who believe that our efforts can make a difference in the world – and who aren't afraid to act on it: Do'ers. We are DoLand.
Who owns DoLand?
DoLand has attracted capital to finance the development of the platform. This means that DoLand is owned by more than one person. This includes the founders of DoLand, Jakob Lage Hansen and Johan Holst Nielsen, as well as a number of so-called business angels who are wealthy individuals.
They have contributed capital in exchange for a share in DoLand. Many of these investors have both relevant knowledge and a good heart, and have supported DoLand's journey in many ways.
The largest external investor is entrepreneur Jonathan Tjoa Algreen. The company Optimal Invest has also made an investment in DoLand as we collaborate on various initiatives.
Finally, we have carried out a crowdfunding campaign on Funderbeam, where people could invest in DoLand and get a share of ownership for relatively small amounts. On the platform, shares are also continuously offered for sale, so there is an opportunity to become a co-owner of DoLand - even for you.
