Shipyards' Status in Denmark

New construction yards

Introduction: More ships are likely to be built in Denmark in the coming years. Until 2008 Denmark was a main player in the shipbuilding industry. Circumstances and society expectations have reestablished focus on shipbuilding

This evening, we will have presentations from the relevant parts of the shipbuilding industry and discuss the following questions.

• How and where shall the ships be built?
