I’m Axel Unger. I’ve spent over 25 years combining design, strategy, and technology to bring ideas to life. I love making visions become a reality.

What Drives Me

I'm passionate about creating solutions that are joyful, relevant, meaningful, and sustainable. I thrive on understanding people's deeper aspirations and needs, and it excites me to leverage cutting-edge technologies like AI and data science, coupled with design, creativity, strategy, and hands-on prototyping and testing, to manifest real and positive change. I’m convinced that transformative change is only possible through community and collaboration. By working collectively, enhancing each other's ideas, and learning mutually, we unravel and shape the new. The myriad conversations, collaborations, and diverse viewpoints I've encountered have been invaluable in my journey.

My Journey

I’ve lived and worked in places like Boston, Milan, and Munich, and it’s been quite an adventure so far! I’ve had the chance to lead some pretty amazing teams and work on some exciting projects, all focused on reimagining what is possible. Throughout this journey, I’ve had a wide range of experiences, roles, and cultural interactions, each contributing a distinct element to my professional life, broadening my viewpoint and perspective.

More Than Just Work

I don’t just create at work. I am intensely curious and love making music, painting, and spending time in my garden. I like making things, no matter what form they take.

Let’s Connect or Meet!

Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a forward-thinking leader, or just someone who loves to create, I’m looking forward to the possibility of our paths crossing and maybe creating something new and beautiful together!
