Christian Arnstedt

Christian Arnstedt is a Danish entrepreneur. After his education in International Business from CBS and Finance from the London School of Economics, he started at the management consulting firm McKinsey. Arnstedt made his debut in the popular DR entrepreneurship programme, Løvens Hule, in 2020.

At the age of 29, he made the American business magazine Forbes' list of Europe's 30 greatest business talents under 30. He is the co-founder and CEO (managing director) of the company Blazar Capital, and he is also the CEO of Copenhagen Cartel, in which he invested in the 2021 season of Løvens Hule. He is married to Charlotte Benedicte Iuel Reventlow and the couple lives in Charlottenlund.

His grandfather, Carl Christian Johan Arnstedt, was a Danish engineer and businessman linked to the FLSmidth group.

With the familiar sources of information at your back, you quickly get an overview of how the image of the young financial comedian Christian Arnstedt is taking shape. At least the picture that the mainstream media seem most interested in painting. He has been educated in record time and has had a meteoric career in business. He is one of the smart profiles in Løvens Hule, and seems like a type that achieves what he goes after. In fact, you don't even get to type his full name before Google suggests whether you want to check his partner status?

But when I start using words like "comet career" and "record time", gently flanked by a raging west wind outside the shed where we have sought shelter for the interview, that look comes back to Christian Arnstedt's face. Focused. Maybe depressed? "I have followed some leads that I think were exciting about education and jobs. I'm good at diving deep into things, and when you take an interest in something, you become good at it. That doesn't make me superhuman," he says.
