As Denmark’s Ambassador to the United States, it is my ambition to make the American-Danish Business Council (ADBC) an integrated part of the activities of the Embassy. Our goal is to increase trade and direct investment between the US and Denmark and in order to do so, we need to engage with more Danish and American companies. I therefore hope that your company will consider membership in ADBC.

ADBC works to promote American companies in Denmark and Danish companies in the US. Our objective is to expand American-Danish cooperation and increase visibility, thereby facilitating an even more thriving American-Danish market place. It is my goal to make ADBC a vibrant and important voice in the discussion of topics and issues impacting Denmark and the US.

Members of ADBC will benefit from a unique relationship with the Embassy as we host sector-specific roundtable meetings and events with partners that will facilitate access to key networks and stakeholders. I look forward to welcoming you to ADBC and working with you to achieve your objectives.

Best regards,
Jesper Møller Sørensen
Ambassador of Denmark to the United States
