Why we chose Greater Copenhagen:
Unicef
UNICEF has placed its global supply warehouse and logistics operations in Copenhagen. The geographic location, easy access to international transport hubs and efficient landing rights and customs clearing were decisive factors.
Biogen
Biogen has placed its European sales office and large production facilities in Greater Copenhagen owing to the local talent pool, the leading life science cluster Medicon Valley and competitive operational costs.
