Presentation

Sunny is a trained organizational anthropologist and obtained her Ph.D. in Management and Organization from University of Copenhagen. Her doctoral thesis "Boundary-Salient Collaboration Projects" takes an ethnographic exploration into the university-industry collaboration processes in two interorganizational research and innovation projects. Boundary, temporary organizing, interorganizational collaboration, and research and innovation are core to her research.

Currently, Sunny is working on the Actionable Futures project, funded by Novo Nordisk Foundation. She will specifically investigate the food system and how major organization actors translate between present-day emerging innovative solutions and distant climate goals across the value chain in dairy production.
