From a small corner of the world where English isn't the primary language.
Navision did just that!
When Microsoft took over in 2002, the total turnover of and around Navision's products was DKK 17 billion (USD 3.4B) and the entire ecosystem employed over 20,000 people.5,460 Miles from Silicon Valley describes how two Danish tech companies got off to a great start, became domestic market leaders and developed into international companies that Microsoft eventually acquired for 1.45 billion dollars.
The book takes you behind the scenes of an utterly unpredictable industry during constant disruption, where strategies don’t necessarily lead to success. It is a book about people, ambitions, and resourcefulness. It is about giving your dream everything you’ve got and building an international business from scratch—in a small Nordic country where English isn’t even the main language.

About the Author
Barely out of college Preben had just turned 21 when he co-founded and became the CEO of Damgaard Data. He and his brother, Erik, navigated through the most turbulent decades in the IT-industry and came out on top as the market leader, showcased a timely IPO, merged with their most prominent competitor Navision Software and accepted a $1.45B acquisition offer from Microsoft in 2002. Preben Damgaard became a business angel in 2003 and has over the span of the last decades been instrumental in a series of successful business ventures. Investments combined with practical experience and an extensive business network have proven to be healthy nutrition for the growth of app and cloud-based technology companies.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.

If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
