Finnish Minister for Foreign Trade and Development Ville Tavio will visit Copenhagen on 3 October. The aim of the visit is to promote the commercial and economic relations between Finland and Denmark and foreign investments in Finland. During his visit, Minister Tavio will meet Denmark’s public officials and key business representatives.

The Minister will meet with, among others, representatives from Dansk Industri, the Confederation of Danish Industry, and the State of Green organisation, and discuss the clean transition and the opportunities for commercial and economic cooperation between Finland and Denmark.

Minister Tavio will also meet the management of the United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS) in Copenhagen to discuss matters including the opportunities for Finnish companies in UN procurement.
