Dr. Sanjay Misra is a senior scientist at the Institute for Energy Technology (IFE), Halden, Norway. A senior member of IEEE and former ACM Distinguished Lecturer, he holds a Ph.D. in Information and Knowledge Engineering. His work spans digital sovereignty, applied informatics, software engineering, cybersecurity, health informatics, and AI. Ranked among the global top 2% of scientists for several years and among Norway’s top researchers, he has received multiple awards, including the IET Software Premium Award. He serves as an editor-in-chief of the International Journal of Human Capital & IT Professionals, International Journal of Digital Sovereignty and Global Data Governance, and editor in journals such as Nature: Scientific Reports(till 2025), Elsevier: Alexandria Engineering Journal( till 2025), Computers Standards and Interface, Springer: IJSAEM and several others.Petter Kvalvik is the head of the Department of Digital Sovereignty and senior scientist at IFE. With advanced degrees in computer science, strategy, safety-critical systems, and business, he leads research in digital sovereignty, focusing on data spaces, interoperability, federated systems, and digital trust. Petter oversees Norway’s FIWARE iHub and the My Digital City program, supporting national smart-community initiatives. He is involved in European data strategy and technology stacks, and he contributes to the Big Data Value Association and the International Conference on Digital Sovereignty. His work includes promoting federated systems, data governance, and decentralized identities for smart communities in Norway.Dr. Kai Morgan Kjølerbakken is the head of Applied Data Science at IFE and associate professor at the University of Oslo. His research spans sensor technology, computational physics, audio, signal processing, and AI, with an emphasis on interdisciplinary collaboration and innovation. Beyond academia, Dr. Kjølerbakken has founded and contributed to successful startups, including Squarehead Technology, Elliptic Labs, and Airmont, bringing valuable industry experience to his work.Per-Arne Jørgensen is a senior researcher and cybersecurity expert with over 20 years of experience in ICT, critical infrastructure protection, and cyber-physical systems. He holds a Master’s degree in Applied Computer Science from Østfold University College, specializing in cyber-physical systems, security operations, and IoT. Per-Arne has held leadership roles, including head of ICT, head of the Security Operations Center, and head of the Risk and Security Research Department. He has contributed to IFE's IT/OT SOC, secure data solutions for the OECD Halden Reactor Project, and the establishment of IFEs Cybersecurity Laboratory. His work focuses on the intersection of industrial control system security, data management, and cyber resilience, with an emphasis on IT/OT convergence, FIWARE technologies, and EU Data Spaces.
