I do the boring parts of the world’s most fun industries.

Balancing an ambitious vision for Nordicity’s future with an inveterate pragmatism, Kristian has the honour of leading Nordicity across its practice areas and teams.

In addition to his overall leadership, Kristian also heads up Nordicity’s video games and digital media practice. You can find him speaking at the world’s largest and most influential events (from GDC to Gamescom), likely waxing eloquent about the business side of this (and/or some other) creative industry.

Kristian has the pleasure of working with some of the world’s largest games companies as well as small independent studios around the globe. From economic impact assessments to ecosystem development and public program design, he is committed to establishing the best possible conditions for creative people and companies to tell their stories in economically sustainable ways. Doing so is, in Kristian’s view, the best possible use of his MSc in Economics and background in International Political Economy.

He also grew up on film and TV sets – mostly in the craft services truck, eating cereal out of a tube.
