VEGA, Enghavevej 40, 1674 København

We are pleased to invite you to The CopenhAIgen Forum 2024, Dansk Erhverv's leading AI conference, on October 7th at VEGA, Copenhagen.

For the second year, we are gathering top minds—from researchers to CEOs and policymakers—to discuss Denmark’s and Europe’s role in the global AI landscape. This year’s theme, "From Hype to Reality" addresses the challenges as AI excitement fades and the demand for real results grows.

Join us for insights on AI’s potential in business and society, covering innovation, regulation, scaling, green transition, and more.

Hear from AI experts like:

Serge Belongie, The AI Pioneer Center
Philipp Hacker, European University Viadrina
Caroline Stage, Minister of Digitalization, Moderaterne
Margrethe Vestager, EVP of the EU Commission
Alongside key political figures and business leaders

The Forum is a unique opportunity to network, gain insights, and shape Denmark’s most ambitious AI initiative.

We look forward to seeing you!
