The Danish-UK Chamber of Commerce

The Danish-UK Chamber of Commerce (DUCC) was set up to enhance the Anglo-Danish marketplace through networking. The Royal Danish Embassy in London was one of the co-founders. To this day, the aim of the DUCC remains to promote trade and investment between Denmark and the UK by providing companies from both countries with a business forum in the UK.

With regular contact to key stakeholders in the private sphere and in the public sector, the Chamber enjoys an excellent relationship with an extended network of decision makers.

The primary platform for the Chamber's activities is the 30-40 events hosted throughout the year. The events are wideranging from casual drinks receptions to business seminars to Dinners.
