Sector counsellors
Focus on Danish core competencies
The sector counsellors focus on sectors where Denmark has special skills, knowledge and technology. They help assess how Danish competencies and solutions can contribute and should be adapted to meet local demand. The sector counsellors build relationships and acquire knowledge on different sectors that the embassy can use to support Danish companies' access to the local market and to promote Danish solutions.
The sector counsellors identify and analyse demand that is relevant to Danish competencies. They build and maintain relationships with relevant local authorities. They concretise the demand and, in cooperation with the Danish authorities, assess how the Danish authorities can help produce results.
