For the Danish life science and health sector, knowledge-sharing and close collaboration between companies and research institutions with full government support is what drives success. For example within clinical trials, Denmark hosts more trials per capita than any other country in the world. It is easy to recruit eligible study participants, and a single point of entry facilitates the identification and contact with leading clinical centres of excellence at hospitals nationwide.
