A new association – lots of experience

Food & Bio Cluster Denmark was formed in May 2020 in a merger of four organisations that have acted regionally, nationally and internationally within their respective areas of competence for many years. In other words, we have extensive experience in innovation and development.

The great advantage of the merger is one overall entrance to development within the entire value chain within food and bioresources in Denmark.
