Denmark as Female Tech Founder Frontrunner

Helping ambitious female and non-binary founders across Denmark launch, grow and scale technology companies — fast

What is the Denmark as Female Tech Founder Frontrunner programme?

We’re here to help women and non-binary founders in Denmark build successful tech companies. Whether you’re just starting out or ready to grow, we’ve designed these programmes to give you the skills, knowledge and connections to go further. With expert mentoring, accelerator opportunities and help raising funding, we’ll back you at every stage of your journey.

We run the programme in collaboration with Industriens Fond, Københavns Kommune, London Stock Exchange, Magnusson, Grant Thornton, EIFO, Nordea, COWI, and other leading partners.

Why do we need this programme?

Denmark ranks below the OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) average for female entrepreneurship for womenbetween 18 and 64.

Only 1.7% of venture capital in Denmark is invested in female founder-led startups.

We’re here to fix that

By giving female and non-binary founders the support, mentoring and connections YOU need to launch, grow and scale YOUR technology companies
