Founder of Cocuura ApS
Mads Hansen
Professional handball referee, Mads Hansen, has for 20 years refereed international handball at the top level and has participated twice in the Olympic Games, and whistled both European and World Cup finals, among other things.
After a long medical examination in 2012, he was diagnosed with an aggressive form of lymph cancer. An elongated course of illness, where the top referee was completely out of the game and only able to watch from the sideline, lay ahead.
The disease was so severe that Mads Hansen and his family had given up hope and were convinced that he was going to die. Fortunately, after a long, tough fight, Mads Hansen came out on the other side and is today completely cured.
Mads Hansen has co-founded Cocuura because he has a huge desire to equip Danish companies better to handle the major challenges that inevitably come up when a valued employee is hit by critical illness, accident or serious life crises.
