Nordic Capitalism in the AI Economy
Denmark in Silicon Valley and Ramboll invite you to an afternoon of insightful conversations and networking with Professor Robert Strand, Executive Director of the Nordic Center at UC Berkeley and author of Nordic Capitalism: Lessons for Realizing Sustainable Capitalism.
As AI accelerates and data centers expand at unprecedented speed, how can we build the energy infrastructure needed to power the next wave of innovation?
Meeting this challenge requires more than technology and investment. It calls for collaboration across industries, governments and institutions, as well as the ability to balance immediate demands with long-term priorities.
Join us as we explore what Nordic approaches to governance, built on trust, collaboration and shared responsibility, can teach us about navigating these challenges and driving large-scale industrial transformation.
We are delighted to welcome Professor Robert Strand, Executive Director of the Nordic Center at UC Berkeley, who will share insights from his book Nordic Capitalism: Lessons for Realizing Sustainable Capitalism, including the Ramboll case study, before moderating a panel discussion.
The afternoon will conclude with a networking reception and book signing.
