Denmark picks Minnesota as its 'bridge' to U.S. med-tech
March 6, 2019
A new $1.3 million economic-development initiative called MedTech Bridge is trying to capitalize on Denmark's strengths.
Denmark is widely known for its large health care companies, such as Coloplast and GN ReSound, and impressive bridges like the 5-mile-long Öresund Bridge to Sweden.
A new $1.3 million economic-development initiative called MedTech Bridge is trying to capitalize on Denmark’s strengths in medical inventions, and bridge-building, by creating international connections to help Danish companies grasp the vast but bewildering U.S. health care market.
A delegation of trade representatives traveled to Minnesota to formalize the MedTech Bridge partnership with Minnesota’s Medical Alley Association. Activities included tours, a reception, in-person introductions and the formal signing of a partnership agreement at the Medical Alley Association’s Golden Valley headquarters.
