Scale-up Europe

Copenhagen City Hall

Held during Denmark’s Presidency of the Council of the European Union and directly following the SME Assembly, Scale-up Europe is a high-level conference that brings together Europe’s leading founders, investors, and policymakers for an afternoon of insight, dialogue, and collaboration.

Organised by Danish Entrepreneurs, SMVdanmark, and the Danish Chamber of Commerce, and supported by the Danish Board of Business Development, the event takes place directly following the European SME Assembly and is aligned with Global Entrepreneurship Week and SME Week.

The event offers a unique opportunity to explore how Europe can better support its scale-ups – through smarter innovation policy, improved access to capital, and stronger cross-border cooperation.

Key program elements include:

  • Expert panels and fireside discussions on innovation policy, regulatory frameworks, capital access, and growth pathways;
  • Curated matchmaking for investors and startups via the b2match platform and policy-driven workshops fostering exchange between the public and private sectors
  • A focus on reinforcing Europe’s competitiveness, cross-border collaboration, and digital transformation.
