🤖 AI Activity Report
Status: low-active
AI Reasoning: Found association of Carl Berninghausen with Sunfire and Norsk e‑Fuel but no specific recent investment dates on visited pages. No clear record of an investment within the last 12 months; last known public activity and press mentions relate to corporate roles and collaborations without dated investment events.
