GTS INSTITUTES
44-45
The combination of new ideas, new technologies and an urge
to change something is often the foundation of startups. In
this way, startups are not so di昀昀erent from the seven so-called
GTS institutes in Denmark (known as Research and Technology
Organizations (RTO) on a European level).
CROWDFUNDING
46-47
Raise capital through small contributions from a large number
of people - even before the product is 昀椀nished.
INCUBATORS & ACCELERATORS
48-53
Incubators and accelerators are programs that support and
train startups, helping them develop their ideas and bring their
products or services to market.
SEED & VENTURE CAPITAL
54-61
Startups turn to venture capital funds when the perfect
recipe for growth has been established, and all that’s missing
is the capital to accelerate growth.
LATE STAGE CAPITAL
62-65
If you’ve created a startup that earns DKK 5 for every DKK
1 spent, you’re well on your way to an international position
of strength. However, the amount of capital requirement
increases as the startup grows.
CORPORATES IN THE ECOSYSTEM
66-69
Access to resources, market share, and industry knowledge
is invaluable for startups, while corporates, on the other
hand, gain access to new innovation.
STARTUP COMMUNITIES, MEDIA & RESOURCES + MISC
70-73
The Danish startup ecosystem is a fast-growing and
constantly evolving organism. This is what makes the
ecosystem so incredibly inspiring - but also very di昀케cult to
navigate, even for insiders.
