What to expect

Options for starting your company in Denmark:

An overview of the different ways you can establish your startup in Denmark, including the most common company structures and the key considerations for each option.

Common pitfalls and how to avoid them:

A look at the typical mistakes startups make such as choosing the wrong company structure, neglecting intellectual property, and practical advice on how to avoid such legal dead ends.

Expanding Internationally:

Denmark is a relatively small market, so many Danish companies have gained success by international expansion. We will discuss what to consider when setting up your company to ensure it is scalable and ready for growth beyond Danish borders.

How Not to Scare Investors Away:

An overview of the company structures and legal aspects that venture capitalists look for when investing in startups, as well as the red flags that can deter investment.

This event is for anyone who dreams of starting their own business, has recently launched a startup, or is interested in understanding the legal aspects to consider when setting up a company in Denmark.

There will be an opportunity to socialize during the break, and sandwiches and beverages will be served during the event.
