The eighth season of Danish Tech Challenge is about to come to an end, and it has not disappointed. We have had hardware technologies focusing on everything from horses to snakes and sound systems to coffee brewers.

The 20 startups that set out in September have been cut down to 5 finalists, and very soon, we will have the winner of Danish Tech Challenge 2021 and The Danish Industry Foundation’s Entrepreneur Award of DKK 500,000.

True to tradition, HRH Crown Prince Frederik will announce the winner and hand over the award. 

Join the Award Show online on the 27 January 2022 where we live stream the show directly from Industriens Hus! 

The host of the Danish Tech Challenge Award Show will be Pernille Enggaard.
