Trump at the helm in the US

The US is Denmark's largest export market with trade totalling DKK 290 billion in 2023, equivalent to 15% of Denmark's total exports. With Donald Trump just inaugurated as president, we are facing significant changes that could have a major impact on Danish companies.

Hear how Maersk, the world's largest shipping company, is navigating a changing US and hear their experiences with the new geopolitical realities.

DI has had a local presence in the US for more than 15 years and has in-depth experience with the US market. Gain insight into how your company can capitalise on the many opportunities in the US and get support from DI to tackle the challenges.

We conclude with a live update from DR journalist Philip Khokhar directly from the US.

The day will be moderated by Gitte Bastian, news anchor at TV2 Østjylland.
