Joel Naoki Christoph

I am an economist working on AI governance, geoeconomics and institutional design. My research asks how countries can verify and enforce rules on AI computing and how they can share its benefits fairly.

I founded 10Billion.org and co-founded the Equiano Institute. I also run the Compute Governance Career Accelerator, a free online course for early-career people who want to help write the rules for AI chips, data centres and electricity.

I have held fellowships at Harvard Kennedy School, the Centre for the Governance of AI and the Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia.
