I have more than 20 years of experience within Robotics & AI. I started my professional life with implementation of robot welding solutions based on digital twins in a startup company in Odense called Intelligent Welding Automation. In 2008 I joined DTI and have been a driving force in numerous robotics projects within implementation, testing, innovation, development and research. Since 2009 I have been active in robotics cluster activities and has e.g. provided input to both Danish and European Robotics & AI strategies. Current focus is on helping companies use robotics & AI as part of their digital transformation and towards increased sustainability.- Member of Odense Robotics Startup Hub Investment Board, https://robotstartupfund.dk/- Member of the board in the Danish Industrial Robot Association, https://www.dira.dk/- Member of the strategy group in MADE - Manufacturing Academy of Denmark, https://www.made.dk/- Member of the Advisory board for Flanders MAKE, https://www.flandersmake.be- Member of the International Federation of Robotics Service Robot Group, ifr.org- Member of numerous Topic Groups in euRobotics, https://www.eu-robotics.net- Member of Adra (The AI Data Robotics association), https://adr-association.eu/- Member of the Advisory Board for the Master in Management of Technology at University of Southern Denmark- Coordinator, member of the steering committee or key role in projects like; AI-matters (AI Test- and Experimentation Facilities for Manufacturing, 2023-), CitCom.ai (Test- and Experimentation Facilities for Smart Cities and Communities, 2023-), euROBIN(European ROBotics and AI Network of Excellence, 2022-), “RIMA – Robotics for Inspection and Maintenance (H2020, 2019-2023), DIH-HERO - Digital Innovation Hubs In Healthcare Robotics(H2020, 2019-2023), AgROBOfood - Digital Innovation Hubs In AgroFood Robotics(H2020, 2019-2023), “COVR: Being safe around collaborative and versatile robots in shared spaces (H2020-ICT, 2018-2021), “ROBOTT-NET: A shared infrastructure to sustainably optimise technology transfer throughout Europe”(H2020-ICT, 2016-19), “RAMPUp - Robotic Automation Modules for Production”(H2020-ICT, 2016-19), MADE (Manufacturing Academy of Denmark, 2014-), ”SMERobotics”(FP7-ICT, 2012-17), “LIAA - Lean Intelligent Assembly Automation”(FP7-NMP-FoF, 2013-17)
