Alster Unfold: Fusion - When collaboration becomes creation

​In a world where change moves faster than strategy can adapt, progress depends on connection.

​Alster Unfold returns with Fusion, a live exploration of how collaboration turns into creation.

​We’ll share stories and insights from teams that have built across boundaries — where design, technology, and trust converge to create something truly new.

​Join us for an evening of ideas, reflection, and open conversation about how shared ambition fuels innovation.

Sara Anvarsson, CTO, LegiLexi Foundation
A different kind of unicorn, built by two people
LegiLexi may not be a unicorn by valuation, but the path Sara and Sofia have taken is just as uncommon. With limited resources, careful prioritization, and a close connection to their users, they’ve built Sweden’s most widely used EdTech platform for early reading.

This evening, Sara shares how two people managed to define and dominate a niche, deliver real value to schools, and grow a SaaS product year after year while staying true to their mission.

Alexis Barnekow, CEO & Founder, Chatflights
Premium traveltech shaped by people, not automation
Just before the pandemic, Alexis launched Chatflights, a service for travelers who want to make smarter decisions without navigating endless price comparisons, loyalty rules, or customer service loops.

Through personal, expert guidance delivered via chat, Chatflights quickly became a trusted tool for frequent travelers and global nomads. Alexis will discuss what it means to build a tech company where human expertise becomes the most scalable advantage.

Karin Nord Carter, Head of Design, Stan
From early-stage startup to a rising unicorn candidate.

When Forbes listed the most promising future U.S. unicorns, Stan was included for good reason. The platform enables creators to launch and sell digital content within minutes and has surpassed SEK 350M in ARR, backed by investors such as Steven Bartlett and Gary Vaynerchuk.

As Stan’s Head of Design, Karin will talk about how design grows into a strategic function over time - shaping product, brand, culture, and ultimately the company’s competitive edge.
