2024 Foreign Investment Summit

Event Description

AmCham’s Foreign Investment Summit highlights the vital role international companies play in the Danish economy – and brings together business, government, and political leaders to discuss Denmark’s strengths and weaknesses when it comes to attracting and retaining foreign (and Danish) investments in Denmark. This year’s summit will feature Danish Minister for Higher Education & Science Christina Egelund as our keynote speaker.

Additionally, we will hear about Invest in Denmark’s new national investment strategy, dive into the latest developments in Danish investment framework conditions, hear cases from three international companies, and discuss Denmark’s competitiveness with members of the Danish Parliament’s Business Committee.

Join us and show your support of foreign investments!
