Teodora Groza
researcher | lecturer | speaker
I'm an AI governance researcher committed to the belief that technological developments need to be paired with adequate governance structures. My work lies at the intersection of law & economics and law & technology, investigating how we can leverage various legal modules (from sector-specific regulation to corporate governance) to align AI with the public interest. I hold a Ph.D. in law from Sciences Po Law School.
I'm a research fellow for the Track AI project, an initiative co-hosted by Sciences Po Law School and CodeX, The Stanford Center for Legal informatics and financed by Project Liberty Institute. I lead a team of law and computer science RAs working together on two axes: 1) the governance ecosystems of AI firms, and 2) the development of an AI-powered antitrust compliance tool.
Current projects:
AI foundation models as self-improving infrastructures (to be presented at the AI & Law conference);
Mapping the meaning of the public interest in AI regulation & industry initiatives;
Governing AI Firms: Antitrust, Corporate Governance, and Regulation (co-editor, forthcoming with Cambridge University Press)
The role of courts in safeguarding electoral competition (to be presented at AFED 2025)
As a lecturer, I teach modules on AI governance, comparative antitrust law, and law & economics. My classes have repeatedly received satisfaction rates of 100%.
I have intervened at and organized numerous conferences bringing together voices from academia, the public sector, and industry, hosted by fora ranging from the OECD to start-up incubator Station F. I am a founding member of the Sciences Po Law & Technology group and the Editor-in-Chief of the Stanford Computational Antitrust Journal.
I have published on AI governance, data markets, the governance of new technologies, and the role of antitrust in promoting innovation. Selected publications:
- The Governance of AI Companies: Reconciling Purpose with Profits
- AI Partnerships Beyond Control: Lessons from the Microsoft-OpenAI Saga
- The New Law of the European Data Markets: Demystifying the European Data Strategy
- Neither Mergers Nor Cartels: Innovation Networks and Competition Law
