BEYOND THE SKY An autobiography (volume two)

Beyond the Sky is the second volume of the autobiography of global financier, philanthropist, adventurer and explorer – Per Wimmer. Described by a commentator as “ a true Indiana Jones meets 007 James Bond” figure, Wimmer’ s life story is far from ordinary and very much driven by a constant desire to push boundaries. In 2007, Wimmer founded his own investment bank, Wimmer Financial. He also supports numerous charities financially with a particular view to inspiring children to live out their dreams. His penchant for exploration and adventure has taken him to 85 countries, a world landspeed record attempt, crossing the USA on a Harley-Davidson motorbike, living with the Indians of the Amazon Forest and skydiving over Mount Everest. This second part to his story tells how Wimmer Financial became one of Europe’ s leading merchant banks in global real estate, natural resources and industrials, going on to win prestigious awards. And we read more about Wimmer’ s exploration adventures, including becoming the first Dane private citizen to fly into space on board Richard Branson’ s Virgin Galactic.

Per Wimmer is a global financier who founded investment management companies Wimmer Financial and Wimmer Family Office. Outside of work, he is an astronaut, adventurer and philanthropist. Danish in origin, Per lives mostly in London.
