As geopolitical uncertainty increases, closer cooperation between Greenland and Denmark has become even more important. Therefore, Greenland Business Association (GE) and the Confederation of Danish Industry (DI) have just signed an expanded cooperation agreement.
The two organizations have enjoyed a strong partnership for many years, most recently formalized in an agreement from 2022. This agreement has now been expanded with a focus on key areas such as sustainability, digitalization, security and preparedness, and education policy.
“With this agreement, we are strengthening the exchange of competencies, knowledge, and networks. The goal is to create new opportunities for companies and employees across Greenland and Denmark,” says Christian Keldsen, Director of GE.
He is supplemented by Lars Sandahl Sørensen, CEO of DI:
“Through this strengthened partnership, we are increasing both our focus and our efforts for the benefit of businesses in both Greenland and Denmark. We are in close dialogue with both the Danish and Greenlandic governments and will contribute to supporting a positive development. We also expect politicians to make bold decisions that create the right framework conditions, so that we can succeed in the fierce international competition,” says Lars Sandahl Sørensen.
