Science to business

In Greater Copenhagen, research and business development go hand in hand. Through close collaboration and open dialogue, we encourage and foster new, smarter ways to achieve excellent results. And this is why we have been able to create ground-breaking research and nurture global market leaders within our fields of strength.

Cooperation is our most powerful tool

We challenge conventions because new ways of thinking and innovation drive us forward. We bring young talent, professors and business professionals together, creating a melting pot of ideas and solutions – because everyone recognises the power of co-operation and knowledge exchange. 

In our society based on equality, openness and trust, we have always nurtured easy access to talent, new perspectives and creative ways of working together. This enables science, research, business and life experience to co-exist and fuel one another. This, combined with the density and effective infrastructure of Greater Copenhagen, shortens the way from idea to solution, a unique equation that makes our ideas work, create an impact and grow into something that truly makes a difference.

Partnerships across business, academia and the public sector

Greater Copenhagen Science Cities facilitate partnerships, networks and close collaboration between business, the public sector and universities with leading scientists and talented students. This triad fosters innovative research and applied science with great business potential in areas such as life sciences, green energy, acoustics, quantum technology, IT and Big Data.

Our collaborative approach allows start-ups to thrive and focus, established businesses to benefit from the agile development environment, and talent to be challenged and gratified.
