Associate Professor Katja Einola and her colleague Violetta Khoreva were interviewed about how AI will affect professional life.

Artificial intelligence has become a natural part of teaching at the Stockholm School of Economics (SSE), where faculty use it to enhance learning, extend support beyond the classroom and prepare students for a changing workplace. The guiding principle is clear: AI should complement, not replace, core academic skills.

With the first warm days of spring settling over Stockholm, a classroom at the Stockholm School of Economics fills with the quiet hum of laptops. Inside, retail management students are not escaping into the sunshine just yet. They are learning how to work with AI systems.

The Stockholm School of Economics (SSE) has been recommended for major national research funding in health, AI, and life sciences. The program is one of only three selected in that category and highlights the House of Innovation's growing role in healthcare innovation.

As AI becomes an active participant in how organizations gather information and evaluate alternatives, new questions and challenges emerge. How do we involve AI in important decision-making? Should we do so at all? What happens if we let AI replace humans as primary decisionmakers? These questions brought researchers and tech builders together at the Stockholm School of Economics on March 13.

As generative AI becomes embedded in everyday work, many organizations are discovering that widespread access does not automatically translate into measurable performance gains. So, what actually drives AI adoption and performance? That question brought together researchers, business leaders, and practitioners at the Stockholm School of Economics on 5 March.

SSE Business Lab climbs from eighth to seventh place in the Financial Times’ ranking of 180 European startup hubs, remaining the only Nordic hub in the top ten. The move comes as Stockholm draws growing attention as the place to be for tech and AI startups, attracting founders eager to understand what is driving the city’s momentum. 

The 2025 Nobel Prize discussion at the Stockholm School of Economics brought together the three economics laureates Joel Mokyr, Peter Howitt and Philippe Aghion to explore how creative destruction shapes economic growth in an era of rapid technological change. From the lessons of history to the challenges posed by artificial intelligence, the conversation highlighted both opportunities and risks in a conversation moderated by Professor Richard Friberg.

As CIVICA Ambassadors, Estrid Kaarme and Simon Warne aim to create engagement among students for current European civic issues: "AI and its impact on democracies is a particularly important matter right now."

The Stockholm School of Economics has received funding from the Swedish Research Council to bring world-leading scholar Professor Kalle Lyytinen from Case Western Reserve University, USA, to the House of Innovation. Starting in January 2026, he will help advance SSE’s research on digital infrastructures and innovation.
