It is where Denmark meets Sweden and Scandinavia meets
the world. It is where we cooperate and connect people
across sectors, industries, cultures and countries.
Greater Copenhagen is in the soul. It is freedom and
happiness. We think new and create smart. Smarter cities,
smarter thinking, smarter technologies.
It is opportunity and excellence.
green is not just a colour, but a mind-set. Where you can ride
your bicycle to work, swim in the harbour, eat local organic
produce and use the power of nature to
keep you warm on a cold winter’s day.

Welcome to Frederikssund
In Frederikssund Municipality we like to see visions become reality.
Therefore we started Denmark’s largest urban development project – Vinge.
Vinge is our bid on the 21.century’s smartest and sustainable city, which will be
integrated in the surrounding nature and at the same time add itself naturally
to our existing and well-functioning urban environments and rich nature. We
are building Vinge together with ground-breaking architects and skilled local
craftsmen.
Frederikssund Municipality is already home to several large multinational and
highly specialized Danish companies particularly in the areas of clean tech - and
the food industry. Our workforce matches the real requirements, and in the city
council, we are very busy with the business of creating the best frameworks for
existing and new businesses.
We are ready to welcome you and create the best possible platform for your
future business ventures.
