Erik Hansen leads application engineering at The Lego Group, pioneering innovative approaches that blend traditional play with cutting-edge technology to inspire future generations of builders and programmers.
As Lead Application Engineer, Hansen has spearheaded the development of Lego's acclaimed programmable robots, which have garnered multiple industry awards. His thought leadership was showcased at Singapore's TechInnovation conference, where he presented Lego's successful digital transformation strategy.
Hansen's engineering team addresses critical skills gaps in Europe's technology sector by creating educational tools that make computer programming accessible to children. Since 1998, these initiatives have introduced programming concepts through hands-on play experiences, fostering a new generation of ICT talent through programs like the FIRST Lego League competition. This approach allows children to develop technical skills while engaging with physical objects rather than screens alone.
Audiences who attend Hansen's presentations gain practical insights into customer-centric product development, learn strategies for blending digital and physical experiences in educational contexts, and discover methods for making complex technological concepts accessible to beginners.
Book Erik Hansen to transform how your organization approaches technology education and builds the foundation for tomorrow's innovation pipeline.
