Innovation policy and Internet searching
Welcome to my web site. Here you will find information both about my work and my life.
My work has been focused on innovation- and research policy development, first as an adviser and science and policy expert at the Norwegian Ministry of Education and Research, and laters as a researcher and Deputy Director at the Norwegian research institute NIFU STEP. On Septebmer 1st 2006 I started in my new position as Director of Strategy at the Research Council of Norway.
I have also been working actively vis-a-vis the European Commission, and was until recently Senior Analyst for the Nordic countries in the EU Trend Chart on Innovation.
Ouside our regular work, my wife Susanne and I are actively involved in various Web projects. We have edited and administered the Pandia.com site since 1998. It is probably Europe's largest site devoted to the search engine industry and Internet searching, and has some 10,000 unique visitors daily.
