Sino-Danish Center for Education and Research in Beijing and Aarhus joined forces for an university partnership
Denmark-China, this is a unique education and research in an inspirational international environment
This first webinar (in a series of three) will give participants an introduction to the Sino-Danish Joint Work
Programme and elements of relevance to the Danish business community, not least the Strategic Sector
Cooperation (SSC) that comprises government-to-government cooperation in areas where Denmark has
experiences and competencies – often linked to knowhow and solutions developed by the Danish business
community.
Following introduction, participants will be introduced to the SSC programme within healthcare. Sector
counsellor Nanna Hollensen will outline the overall objective of the project and present the two project
tracks: regulation of medicines and medical devices, and the role of the primary healthcare sector in early
detection and treatment of chronic diseases and mental health diseases. She will explain how a close
bilateral cooperation within the SSC Health framework between Danish health authorities and Chinese
health authorities such as the as the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) and the National
Health Commission (NHC) can be important or beneficial for Danish companies.
Finally, Innovation Attaché Thomas Trøst Hansen, PhD will present an overview of existing collaborations
between Denmark and China within higher education and science. He will also present an analysis of the
Chinese R&D-system and highlight areas, where Danish companies should look towards China for worldleading
ecosystems, especially relevant to green transition. Following the presentation there will be an open
discussion at which any related questions and/or comments are most welcome.
