He began his career as an electrician and electrical engineer in the 1980s and has since devoted more than 35 years to developing lighting solutions for people and spaces. After twelve years at Louis Poulsen and over 25 years at Fagerhult, he now leads the Fagerhult Lighting Academy \u2013 a global platform that gathers and shares knowledge about light.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-700b943 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"700b943\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"225\">\n<li data-section-id=\"1jcrfyy\" data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"225\">The goal of the academy is clear \u2013 to gather, develop, and share knowledge about light with our employees, customers, and universities. Educating and inspiring others has always been a major part of my work,\u201d says Henrik.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"227\" data-end=\"276\"><strong data-start=\"227\" data-end=\"274\">Light that influences emotions and behavior<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"278\" data-end=\"444\">At Elm\u00e4ssan, Henrik will lecture on AI-driven emotional &amp; behavioural lighting, looking into the future and exploring how AI can change the way we experience light.<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"446\" data-end=\"618\">\n<li data-section-id=\"1l4jaxo\" data-start=\"446\" data-end=\"618\">\u201cMy main interest is how light affects our emotions and behavior in everyday life. I believe AI can help us create lighting that benefits both people and biodiversity.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"620\" data-end=\"991\">Henrik\u2019s interest in AI began in 2019 when he took the course <em data-start=\"682\" data-end=\"702\">The Elements of AI<\/em> at the University of Helsinki. Since then, he has explored how the technology can be combined with lighting design. \u201cI\u2019m confident that AI can become an important piece of the puzzle for future lighting and control systems, provided it is used wisely and under human guidance,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"993\" data-end=\"1032\"><strong data-start=\"993\" data-end=\"1030\">Human-centric lighting and health<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1034\" data-end=\"1390\">Henrik has long been involved in the development of human-centric lighting (HCL) \u2013 lighting that adapts to human biological needs. When researchers discovered the \u201cthird receptor\u201d in the eye and how light regulates our sleep cycles, it became clear how strongly light affects health and well-being. This led to the concept of HCL, Human Centric Lighting.<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"1392\" data-end=\"1616\">\n<li data-section-id=\"vbjqfp\" data-start=\"1392\" data-end=\"1616\">\u201cGood Light has always been central to us at Fagerhult. With AI and smart control systems, we can take the next step and combine Good Light with low energy consumption and long lifespan in our future lighting solutions.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1618\" data-end=\"1646\"><strong data-start=\"1618\" data-end=\"1644\">Practical applications<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1648\" data-end=\"2017\">Henrik sees the greatest potential for AI-driven lighting in environments such as offices, schools, and hospitals. \u201cThese are places where people spend many hours a day, and where lighting affects both concentration and comfort. I believe we will see individual lighting profiles in the future, where each person receives the right amount of light at the right time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2019\" data-end=\"2282\">When asked what property owners and other stakeholders should consider when moving toward AI-driven systems, his advice is clear: \u201cWork with reputable suppliers, dare to dream \u2013 but always ask for facts. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2284\" data-end=\"2309\"><strong data-start=\"2284\" data-end=\"2307\">The future of light<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2311\" data-end=\"2645\">Looking ahead, Henrik sees both challenges and opportunities. \u201cWe need to create lighting that feels fantastic to be in, meets standard requirements (like EN12464), and is energy efficient. This will require new collaborations, perhaps with partners we don\u2019t even know today. But I\u2019m convinced that together, we can make it happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2647\" data-end=\"2797\"><strong data-start=\"2647\" data-end=\"2670\">Want to learn
