Pension & Sparkles

How familiar are you with your pension, or what you offer your team?A recent survey by European Pensions revealed that 45% of Danes haven't checked their pension scheme this year, and 28% have never received advice about their pension from a bank or provider. And with Denmark now moving to raise the retirement age to 70 by 2040, this isn’t just future you’s problem anymore, especially if you were born after December 31, 1970.Whether you’re a founder, freelancer, or part of a growing Fintech team (also as an international looking to stay long term), getting your pension setup right is one of those things that quietly matters. Join us and Tietgen Pension for a session on how to get smarter about it, without spreadsheets or sales pitches.

About Tietgen PensionStarted in 2024 by Tillie, Boti, Mads, Jacob and Lars, Tietgen Pension is an independent pension advisory firm helping founders, freelancers, and small or big teams make sense of pension and insurance, without pressure, and without a one-size-fits-all pitch. They work across providers to find setups that actually fit your life and company. And most of all, they have made pension easy to understand and easy to apply with their digital onboarding. They’re part of the Copenhagen Fintech community and they get the founder context, especially if you’re early-stage, scaling, or just... figuring it out.
