The presentation, according to press statements, was attended by 110 representatives from the business community, researchers and promoters of trade and industry from Denmark and abroad. The one common denominator was that participants shared an interest in Cleantech as a development area and were interested in the role that Copenhagen Cleantech Cluster could play in future developments.

The official Copenhagen Cleantech Cluster kick-off will be help April 14th. It will involve all current participants – more than 500 businesses, organizations and knowledge institutions operating in the cleantech sector in Copenhagen and across Denmark.

The CCC is in part funded by EU Structural Fund Project, and has a budget of DKR 143 million (Half of the money comes from structural funds and the other half is sponsored by the partners themselves).

Driven by significant public policy, economic stimuli and incentive initiatives, several regions are developing fast growing cleantech clusters. Although using a fairly loose definition of clusters, Sustainable World Capital (SWC) a cleantech advisory firm recently developed a top-ten list of global cleantech clusters to watch. The top 5 clusters are according to SWC:

  1. Austria Eco World Styria (Austria)
  2. The New England Clean Energy Council (USA)
  3. Finnish Cleantech Cluster (Finland)
  4. MaRS Cleantech (Canada)
  5. Copenhagen Cleantech Cluster (Denmark)

The entire list, and more details published at Cleantech Grop LLC’s Web site
