Dr. Pernille Berg, Research and Programmes Director, Senior Researcher, The Danish Foundation for Entrepreneurship

Research and Programmes Director at Fonden for Entreprenørskab, the Danish Foundation for Entrepreneurship Education.

With a PhD in sociology and educational sciences, I have over 15 years of experience in researching, developing, and implementing innovative educational institutions, programmes, r&d projects, and practices that foster entrepreneurial mindsets and skills among learners, student start ups, educators, and leaders, nationally and internationally.

My passion is to create meaningful educational institutions that prepare students for the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century. I have led and contributed to multiple projects and collaborations that aim to enhance innovation and entrepreneurship within education programmes, both in Denmark and internationally. As former science director of BLOXHUB, the Nordic hub for sustainable urbanization, I have valuable experience and networks in the fields of innovation, sustainability, and urban development. I am a skilled moderator, workshop facilitator, communicator, and speaker, as well as an analytical and strategic thinker.
