Sleep Tech company expands to Copenhagen with the aim of global growth
Mar 19, 2026 A US-based software company with a solution that improves sleep patterns is now strengthening its European presence with an establishment in Copenhagen. Because of Copenhagen Capacity’s support, the establishment was “extremely efficient” according to the company’s CEO.Timeshifter, a US software company, has established a strategic development hub in Copenhagen. The company’s tech solutions help people optimise their circadian rhythm using leading sleep research and circadian science, with use cases ranging from frequent travellers and shift workers to elite athletes and astronauts.
By establishing in Copenhagen, Timeshifter becomes part of a strong healthtech and digital innovation ecosystem, benefiting from access to highly skilled talent and a collaborative business environment.
“Timeshifter’s investment and establishment in Copenhagen creates high-quality jobs, strengthens our deep tech ecosystem, and reinforces Greater Copenhagen as an attractive destination for international tech scale-ups,” says Asbjørn Overgaard, CEO at Copenhagen Capacity.
Strategically choose Copenhagen for future growth in Europe
As global awareness of sleep health and performance optimisation continues to grow, Timeshifter operates at the intersection of healthtech, deep tech, and applied science. With a growing global user base, the company will now expand its European presence with a base in Copenhagen.
Timeshifter’s new Danish setup will serve as a global function responsible for development and international activities, and as a strategic hub for Timeshifter’s future growth.
Over the next three years, the company expects to create 15 full-time positions in Denmark, primarily within research, innovation, and software development. In addition, three highly educated employees will relocate from abroad to join the Copenhagen team.
Fast and frictionless establishment with help from Copenhagen Capacity
Copenhagen Capacity played a key role in supporting Timeshifter throughout the establishment process. Our assistance included providing strategic advice to Timeshifter, introductions to Danish companies and potential partners, and referrals to local lawyers, accountants, and other service providers.
“Copenhagen Capacity’s support — from office facilities to connections with trusted advisors — made an enormous ifference. The most important thing for me was how easy it was to get started. The entire process was extremely efficient, and I was operational after just 14 days,” says Mickey Beyer Clausen, CEO of Timeshifter.
With Timeshifter’s Copenhagen hub now operational, the company is set to accelerate product development and international expansion, further embedding itself in Denmark’s growing ecosystem for science-based digital health solutions.
