<p>He will take over the role as minister after Søren Pind. </p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I wish we could have met under other circumstances. As a citizen and entrepreneur, I have always been wildly impressed with you. You are prepared to discuss ethics and morals and allow it to be ruler of policy. I have the deepest respect for that&#8221; said Tommy Ahlers to his predecessor.</p></blockquote>
<p>Regarding his investments and future investements, he announced at the <a href="https://www.dr.dk/live/nyheder/live/2772707" rel="noopener" target="_blank">pressconference</a> that he will step down as active investor, and become passive in the ones he has. </p>
