Methodologically, Louise works as an engaged scholar in close collaboration with private and public actors in North Jutland. This methodological point of departure is also immanent in her research strategy and as a part of her overall research dissemination to create social impact.

Her previous research has involved the context of port development and collaborative business models. Her Ph.D. studies were co-funded by the Port of Aalborg, for which reason the development of the maritime and port industry remains a special area of interest for Louise.
