Henrik Roonemaa

Henrik Roonemaa is an Estonian tech journalist with more than 20 years experience. Currently he writes for the news portal Geenius.ee, a website he co-founded six years ago. He also hosts tech podcasts and radio shows in Estonia and gives frequent talks at events.

His most memorable paycheck: “Every paycheck since founding my own company has been memorable. Everyone told me it couldn’t be done; there’s no room for another news portal in Estonia. But we did it anyway, and we’ve been successful, which sometimes still amazes me. It feels good to be able to pay my own salary.”
