Øresund Science Region

A transnational initiative between Denmark and Sweden that serves to strengthen one of the most important assets of the Øresund region: the unparalleled presence of highly skilled human resources and cutting-edge technologies, which is the result of a specialised research community and a growing number of knowledge-based, market-leading companies.

The aim is to stimulate the process towards developing a knowledge-based economic growth spiral in the region, because we will see over the next decade or two that the build-up, transfer and commercialisation of knowledge will become one of the most important economic growth factors in an ever more competitive world.

Science regions are generally recognised as regions with strong triple helix st ructures and a strong knowledge-based economy. Øresund Science Region works with exactly these aspects of The Øresund Region. It is a regional tool that aims to strengthen The Øresund Region from a global perspective.
