Dušan Stefan Stojanović (born 23 July 1969 in Borås, Sweden) is a Swedish entrepreneur, angel investor and founder of True Global Ventures. He is based in Singapore. Stojanović has made 18 investments mainly in FinTech (including payments) and digital media. Out of these 18 investments, he had seven exits and no investment has closed down. In 2009, he was nominated as one of Europe's "Top 5 Angels", and in 2013, he was awarded the "Business Angel of the Year in Europe" by EBAN after having three positive exits in a single week, something which was previously unheard of.〔 At the end of 2010, he founded True Global Ventures and is its single largest shareholder. True Global Ventures is an investment vehicle investing in serial entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley, New York, Beijing, Hong Kong, Singapore, Stockholm, Paris and Berlin. At the start of 2013, he set up True Global Ventures 2, an investment vehicle consisting of almost exclusively serial entrepreneurs investing exclusively in serial entrepreneurs based in New York, Silicon Valley, Beijing, Singapore, Hong Kong, Berlin and Stockholm within Fintech (including payments) and Digital Media.〔 Dušan’s investing style can sometimes be viewed as controversial, since it demands each partner to be active instead of being “passive investors”. He only accepts investors who have done an exit themselves as entrepreneurs and have done at least two angel investments. Most partners have done about 20 investments. As opposed to the traditional VC model, he believes that 32 partners focused on a couple of investments per year is of better help for ambitious entrepreneurs and ultimately driving high returns.〔〔〔 Dusan has also contributed to a number of different organizations and entrepreneurs through donations. After his three exits in 2012, he donated a portion of his proceeds to save the last Tesla Lab, the Tesla Science Centre on Long Island, New York State.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dusan’s support for Tesla Science Centre )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Press Conference Reaffirms Passion And Commitment )〕 He is also made a smaller donation to the Tesla Statue in Palo Alto.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Meet the backers of the Tesla Statue )〕 In 2015, after another exit of his portfolio companies, he set aside funds to donate to female entrepreneurs and Tesla-inspired innovators.〔 It has been noted that he is a distant relative to Nikola Tesla himself and is a strong supporter of all things Tesla.〔 Dušan finished High School at Sigrid Rudebeck Gymnasium, in Göteborg, Sweden and finished an International Business Degree at Gothenburg University and Commercial Law in 1994.〔 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dušan Stoiljković (investor)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
