The story

On June 4, 2006 Prince Joachim of Denmark opened the first Innovation Centre Denmark in Silicon Valley, California. The center was a pilot project tasked with creating a sustainable and innovative business model. A second center was established in Shanghai in 2007 and in 2008, another location was founded in Munich. The centers in New Delhi and Seoul followed in 2013, although the New Delhi location was changed to Bangalore soon after. 10 years after the first Innovation Centre Denmark was launched, the sixth Innovation Centre was established in 2016 in Tel Aviv. Finally, the newest center in Boston was founded in 2019.
