Soft launch of the report “Sino-Danish Tech Collaboration”

DCBF invites members to this online network meeting, organized by Sense China, where the report Sino-Danish Technology Collaboration will be launched. The report is a result of the China Tech project, a collaboration between Danish-Chinese Business Forum, the Danish Academy of Technical Sciences, Sense China, and the Sino-Danish Center for Education and Research. 

Working in China is becoming a riskier affair for Danish companies. They are confronted with challenges across a wide spectrum of issues, from geopolitical tensions to human rights concerns. Public opinion in Denmark is adding to the pressure. Critical media coverage and tough political rhetoric are making commercial decisions more difficult to defend.

This online network meeting, organized by Sense China, examines the topic of risk management in China. Several Danish company representatives will share experiences in a confidential setting, focusing on two themes:

  • How to manage operations in a politically sensitive environment?
  • How to align business opportunities with different social values?

Report Launch: Sino-Danish Technology Collaboration

At the online network meeting, a new report will also be launched: Sino-Danish Technology Collaboration.

Throughout the past 10-15 years, many Danish companies and institutions have established relations with China as well as Chinese partners. These relations are today challenged by geopolitical tensions and national priorities in Beijing, Brussels, and Washington. However, technology collaboration with China creates value and is a global necessity in terms of climate change, green transition, and fighting pandemics.

This report introduces the context, potential, forms of collaboration, and ways to manage the risks associated with technology collaboration. It is prepared specifically with small and medium-sized Danish technology companies in mind and aims to help them work more confidently with existing or potential China-based partners.

Sino-Danish Technology Collaboration is a result of the China Tech project, which the Danish Academy of Technical Sciences (ATV) coordinated alongside a working group consisting of the Danish-Chinese Business Forum (DCBF), Sense China (Danish Confederation of Industries), and the Sino-Danish Center for Education and Research. The Laurits Andersen Foundation provided financial support to the China Tech initiative and the report.
