KPI 4
Through leveraging the tech embassy’s network, contributed to 10 specific export opportunities for Danish companies and foreign investments in Denmark for responsible technology.
Working closely with an industry that never sleeps, allows Denmark’s Tech Embassy to continuously leverage the network of both developers and investors in Silicon Valley’s technological epicentre. Building on the well-established network and respect locally, we have set the scene for Danish talent and projects to meet local stakeholders and venture capitalists at several occasions.
In close cooperation with local Danish trade-council representatives and experts, we tread the line between our political mandate with their investment oriented work, to build a complete platform for Danish businesses. It has been evident, that diplomatic and commercial interests are two sides of the same coin in the ever-growing technological landscape, so bilateral alliances are paramount to make the most of Denmark’s leading position in Silicon Valley.
