Business Review talked to Thomas C. Knobel, founder & CEO Nobel, inventor & founder of WowApp , to find out how the sports influence his professional activity.

Competitions: I started playing table tennis aged 12 and my highest achievement was to be captain of my state’s championship team in Switzerland at 16. After a roughly 20-year break, I started playing again in Romania, competing in Sunday tournaments in Bucharest and nationally in the Romanian Amateur league.

Relationship between sport and professional career: Even when all the odds or everyone is against me, I don’t give up because until it’s over, there is always a chance to succeed.

Business lessons learned from sport: Compete hard and stay fair. Fair play is the way to go and in the long run will make me a better athlete and leader.
