Czech-Denmark Technology Days

  With Europe poised for unprecedented enlargement, Denmark's unique position as a north European gateway to newly opening EU markets and millions of new customers in the Baltic States and central Europe - as well as to the whole Nordic market - is attracting increasing attention from international companies and investors looking for a European base. This kit provides the essential tools to help you evaluate and prepare for setting up a business in Denmark.

 The production industry in Denmark:
The overall productivity in Denmark is among the highest in the world. The Danish production industry is dominated by small or medium-sized niche productions of a high technical standard. The trend in the Danish production industries is an increase in the high-tech, know-how intensive sectors like biotechnology, medico-technology, ICT and renewable energy which have experienced noticeable expansion. The production environment is characterized by innovative production processes and an improved technological development combining design and automation. This is mainly due to the high degree of automation in the production processes, the efficiency and the process-oriented attitude of the employees as well as the employees’ willingness to take responsibility.

Science&Research:
Denmark is a country without many natural resources. In light of this, research of high quality is a necessary investment in the future. The short presentations of some of the areas of Danish research that you will find here are meant to enable you to get an idea of some of the Danish research environments as well as meet some of the scientists.

Technology & Production Sciences:
It's also quite likely that future instruments and machines will be able to monitor and adjust themselves automatically. Scientists have made strides to simplify the way cooling systems and windmills are controlled. These examples are typical of the results-oriented research that is sponsored by the Danish Research Council for Technology and Production Sciences.

New technologies:
    * Highly developed ICT infrastructure
    * Among the world’s top 5 in penetration of PCs and internet use and broadband (IMD 2007)
    * Among world’s leaders in R&D for all three of the following clusters: Wireless, Software, Biotech, Medicotech,    Cleantech
    * “E-government”: the public sector is at the cutting edge of new developments in IT
