How We Work

Public - private collaboration

Danish Cleantech Hub is an international public-private partnership. The founding partners are The Confederation of Danish Industry and State of Green. We work with a variety of partners including public agencies, private business, universities, and NGOs in order to tell New York the story of the green transition of Denmark. Deeply integrated in the cleantech ecosystem of New York, Danish Cleantech Hub can provide a single point of entry for all cleantech related activities between Denmark and New York.

Activities and projects

Danish Cleantech Hub organizes high-level conferences, customized fact finding tours, collaboration agreements, and workshops to create awareness of Danish cleantech solutions. By engaging Danish cities and municipalities as public partners, the Danish Cleantech Hub inspires US counterparts to look to Denmark for all climate adaptation needs.

We also implement projects financed by foundations and public development programs. These are examples for the project sponsors we are working with.

Event Details

About the program

The celebratory program is a unique opportunity for Danish companies within fashion and interior design to showcase products, engage the American design community, and develop sales channels.

Hosted by the Confederation of Danish Industry, Danish Cleantech Hub, Lifestyle & Design Cluster, and the Consulate General of Denmark in New York, this program is targeted to help Danish SMV’s tap into this growing market demand and assist each attending company with positioning their respective products as innovative and trendsetting.

Activities and program

The program will consist of three different types of activities. You can choose to only participate in the virtual activities, or you can participate in the entire program.

Exclusive workshops on American design

From the official Circular City Week Studio, we will host two virtual workshops – one focusing on circularity in fashion, the other interior design. The workshops will give an exclusive forum to discuss circularity trends with industry stakeholders in the US.

One-to-one meetings with American customers

As part of the program, we are offering all participating companies to tap into our combined network of fashion and interior design buyers, retailers, and costumers. Based on your company interest, we will facilitate virtual individual meetings between you and the American counterpart, to assist you in your sales and business development efforts.

Circular pop-up exhibitions in New York

As we are hoping the Covid-19 situation in New York City continues to allow retail spaces to remain open, we will organize two pop-up exhibitions in SoHo, Manhattan. Buyers, costumers and other stakeholders will be able to book time to exclusively visit these two pop-exhibitions, where you can physically showcase your flagship pieces. A product catalogue will be developed for both physical and online use.

Who should join?

The program mainly targets Danish SMV’s working within the field of fashion and interior design, who have created product and solutions based on circular economy principles. These include, but are not limited to, lifetime extension initiatives, circular material choices, take-back schemes, leasing or shared economy business models, upcycling practices and so on.

This program is designed to both assist companies that already have a strong presence in USA and companies looking to expand into the American marketplace. Those companies who are not established, will be offered workshops on how to enter the market, as well as insights into the opportunities and challenges which the market upholds.

Why join?

Content specific workshops with highly relevant peers
Networking and B2B meetings with potential collaborators, buyers or retailers
