Projects

My current research centres on public-sector AI governance, alongside ongoing work on insurance and risk. Upcoming work includes a study of state orchestration of AI development in Denmark and methodological work on how to study that orchestration as infrastructure.

Current projects

Infrastructuring public-sector AI. Within the IPA project, I analyze how Nordic welfare states orchestrate the development and scaling of AI across the public sector. A comparative article examines the national AI initiatives of Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland, and a book in preparation follows the Danish AI task force.

Insurance infrastructures of risk management. A side project focusing on how insurers manage the risk of severe-weather events such as floods and cloudbursts together with banks, mortgage institutions and public authorities, with a focus on the Danish housing market.
