Dinner with Lisbet and Michael: Share Your Hobby

Lisbet and Michael are hosting a concept dinner for 8 guests in their home in Hørsholm, focused on hobbies: what we build, make, and do when we're fully in flow. Each guest is invited to bring a hobby to share, either physically or through words, to spark meaningful exchange and inspiration. Lisbet Madsen built her career as a senior consultant and international team lead at global corporations including Shell, Unilever, and IBM. She worked across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, advising leadership teams and managing complex transformation processes. Today, she exhibits ceramics and visual art: a continuation of her drive to create and communicate with precision. Michael Regnarsen spent nearly two decades at IBM, specializing in system architecture, requirement analysis, and application development. Known for his structured thinking and long-term approach, he now applies those same principles to restoring classic mahogany boats: a hands-on hobby grounded in patience, craft, and engineering logic. Together, they’re inviting 8 guests to their home for an evening built on challenges, curiosity, and shared focus: guided by two people who have spent a lifetime planning, executing, and finding meaning in both work and craft.
