Jakob Lyykegaard is a Danish entrepreneur and the founder of Lykke Studios, a privately held studio creating Augmented Reality experiences.  Prior to this he has, from Bangkok, built and sold 2 companies, Playlab and Pagemodo, the first of which employed 100 people and served 28 million players.

Jakob came to Bangkok in 2009, a journey in itself which is quite inspiring. He dropped out of college in year 1 to go and seek his future in Asia, contrary to the advice of those around him. Was it a good decision in the end? We’ll find out in this interview. We are also going to talk about building and selling a mobile tech startup, life in Thailand and Augmented Reality.
