Ekky is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), DTU Management. His research and work interest span the field of technology commercialization and organization science. Currently, in his Postdoctoral work/project, Ekky is developing a stroke rehabilitation system (focusing on communication disorder/aphasia) that can enable personalized treatment based on the approach of human digital twins. Objective of this project is to prove the feasibility of a novel approach in stroke rehabilitation that can lead to further commercialization effort. Ekky manages the day-to-day activities leading to the feasibility study. This project is funded by the Novo Nordisk Foundation. In his PhD study in management at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) (obtained in 2026), Ekky researched how Big Science endeavors in the 21st century are being managed. Aspects of management in his PhD study include in-kind collaboration and the establishment of a Big Science endeavor. The Big Science endeavor of his research interest was the European Spallation Source (ESS), the state-of-the art neutron research facility currently under construction in Lund, Sweden. Theories in temporary organizing and strategic alliances are used as important conceptual constructs in his PhD thesis.
