description: "Christen Eugen Ager-Hanssen is a Norwegian internet entrepreneur and venture capitalist. Since the late 1990s, he has been based in London and is a highly controversial private equity professional. Ager-Hanssen was involved in several high-profile M&A deals and has become known for public hostile takeovers. In a Canadian Business cover story, he was described as both Gordon Gekko and a modern-day Viking. In 1999 he claims to have become one of Norway's richest citizens, although investigative journalists have disputed this."
