Entrepreneur at heart, Thomas founded his first company during high school. While pursuing a degree in business administration he built Falk GmbH and later the Falk eSolutions AG. This company quickly developed into the most sought-after supplier of ASP-solutions for online-marketing, so Thomas decided to devote his full attention to his business and dropped out of school after two years. In 2006 Thomas sold his company to DoubleClick, where he gained international management experience as President EMEA. A year later DoubleClick was acquired by Google and Falk left to follow his entrepreneurial passion again. He clearly saw that advertising would remain the biggest revenue source for online content and thus founded his venture capital firm eValue in autumn 2006. It is located in Duesseldorf's newly developed Mediaharbour, which focuses on companies in the area of online marketing.
