Head of the LEGO Ventures Incubation Studio. Based in Billund but operating globally.

He joined LEGO Ventures in 2018. Michael has spent the last 15 years working with innovation and kids – ranging from founding an early stage MedTech startup to leading the development of Interactive Playgrounds, and for the last 9 years, working on multiple innovation projects within the LEGO Group. With two wonderful kids, Michael has developed a large back-catalogue of incredibly bad dad-jokes. Michael is as Danish as it gets and has been a loyal brand ambassador of LEGO® toys since the age of two, which shaped his childhood dreams of studying engineering and the desire to work for the LEGO Group; Michael is now living the dream!
Formerly the Head of LEGO Ventures, Alexis is interested in the future of play, robotics, blockchain applications for kids and life-long-entrepreneurship. Alexis spent the previous decade based in Singapore where she founded 3 companies spanning from consulting to e-commerce.

Alexis holds a masters degree in Political Science from San Francisco State University. She is consistently rated “most clumsy” by her colleagues and friends. Unlike most of her colleagues Alexis did not grow up with LEGO® toys and has only realized recently that in fact EVERYTHING IS AWESOME! She enjoys making homemade pasta, feeding that pasta to friends and occasionally running to work off all that pasta.
