Flemming Besenbacher, Chairman

The ambition is to create close relationships and collaborative alliances that strengthen the Danish water sector. In practice, this means involving a single ecosystem that builds on existing initiatives and at the same time includes several companies, international actors, universities and promising startups. Thereby we can create new knowledge and new water solutions, which can expand Denmark’s already strong position in the world market for water technology.
