Eskild is internationally recognized for his design work featured in a wide range of global media. He uses the proud heritage of Danish Design as a platform for his work within areas as consumer electronics, lamps, furniture, and medical devices. Eskild holds several design patents and awards. He combines his background of proven design experience with business and leadership skills. This provides him with a unique perspective that has enabled him to lecture about design and innovation at universities and to become a frequent key-note speaker at conferences and seminars around the world. After his industrial design education, he moved to New York to start his carrier, which would later lead him to be Head of the Cisco European Design Center, Global Director of design at Coloplast and to design projects with the largest companies in the world from Bang & Olufsen to Deutsche Telecom.
