`As more and more players compete for scarce Norwegian electricity, we need to ask which data centres Norway actually benefits from´, says NHH Professor Øivind A. Nilsen.

From 10–11 September 2026, NHH hosted the third workshop, “Gender Diversity in Organisations and Careers”, organized by Astrid Kunze (NHH) and Marco Francesconi (University of Essex, Affiliate Professor at NHH). This was the third workshop in a series of events connected to the research grant “Challenges in rapidly changing labor markets: Human capital, firms, and family policy” (EquiFirm), funded by the Norwegian Research Council (NFR) for the period 2021–2027 and led by PI Astrid Kunze.

The Macro Group gathered together for a kick-off, where each member had a chance to present their work. We saw presentations ranging from household finance and monetary policy to economic history and labor market dynamics, from early-stage ideas to more fully developed projects. It was great to exchange ideas and receive feedback.  Thank you to all the participants!

The paper titled "Estimating Grain Storage with Probate Inventories: Kent and Cornwall, 1600-1750" by Liam Brunt and Edmund Cannon has been published in Explorations in Economic History.
