Mads is an associate partner, lawyer, and AI lead at EY Tax & Law.
Mads heads the law firm's technology initiative, which includes artificial intelligence, digital assets, and the transformation of legal departments.
The work with artificial intelligence involves how i) EY use the technology in our daily work, ii) clients' legal and tax departments adopting the technology, and iii) companies' risk and governance management. Mads led the development of EY's standard for trustworthy artificial intelligence for Norwegian enterprises, published in conjunction with the think tank Langsikt in June 2024.
In his work with Legal Operations and Managed Services, Mads assists legal departments with strategic decisions, automation of processes, and selection of technical solutions. He regularly holds roundtables for legal leaders.
Mads has worked with digital assets for many years and is considered one of Norway's leading attorneys in the use of blockchain technology and the financial regulatory classification of crypto assets.
How Mads is building a better working world
"As independent advisors, we might be good, but with multidisciplinary teams, we bring excellence. Working with people from all sectors and different backgrounds is what motivates me. By being adaptable and curious to learn what others might bring to the table, I have been involved in many projects where you would typically not put a lawyer. But by thinking outside the box, there’s no limit to what can be achieved, whether it is blockchain, AI or sustainability projects, featuring Norway’s first known legal design project, or simply thinking outside the box in legal matters."
