Key areas and projects

The South Denmark European Office actively matches European and Danish partners in EU projects, and supports projects with management and co-ordination.

Our team works to build and strengthen the synergy between european and southern Danish strengths in fields including:

- Health and welfare innovation
- Energy, climate and the circular economy
- Future skills and education

Here are a few examples of our recent projects:

FUTE is a European project to implement more design thinking into the educational curriculum in schools across Europe.

EUVECA is an Erasmus+ project designed to support the development of future-oriented skills within the health and care sector.

The EDEN project aims to contribute to a better care of citizens living with dementia, through better information and awareness raising.

European networks and partnerships

The South Denmark European Office is an active member of many pan-European networks, both independently and on behalf of public and private organisations and institutions.

We work to create local, regional and European partnerships and collaborative projects, and to build international awareness of Southern Denmark’s skills, strengths and innovations.

SDEO is also a member of the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN), the world’s largest support network for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with international ambitions.
