In Cooperation with the Royal Danish Navy, Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development Canada, and the Government of No In cooperation with The Royal Danish Navy, Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development Canada, and the Government of Nova Scotia we would like to invite you to participate in a workshop to better understand how the Royal Danish Navy’s Iver Huitfeldt class can be of inspiration to the Royal Canadian Navy and the Canadian defence industry. Presentations will be provided by the Danish Acquisition Logistics Organization (DALO). We will have lunch aboard the Danish frigate HDMS NIELS JUEL as guests of the Danish Navy, and tour the vessel afterward. Interested Canadian companies will have the opportunity to meet with participating Danish companies for business to business meetings on-board in the afternoon. The NIELS JUEL, an Iver Huitfeldt-class air defence frigate, was commissioned in November 2011. The three ships of this class implement a cost-effective evolution of the Absalon Class HM&E design developed by the Danish Navy and Odense Steel Shipyard, adapted to support an expanded surface combatant role. One of the key cost-saving principles behind this program is the re-use of the Royal Danish Navy's StanFlex modular mission payloads. These ships integrate numerous advanced weapons and a European AAW sensor suite. This is a great opportunity to hear and see the approach from DALO, which will provide key insights into how decoupling payload systems from ship platforms can enable the Royal Canadian Navy to affordably procure and maintain relevance of Canadian Surface Combatant (CSC) for the duration of their expected service life. Attached you will find a tentative agenda outlining speakers and topics featured during this workshop. As a specialist in your field, we believe your participation in this event would add to the technical discourse of the other invited experts. There is no cost associated as an invited participant. If you are interested in joining us, please register using the Eventbrite link no later than Tuesday, November 11th. We hope to see you on 17 November.

Kurt Birger Jensen, Director Naval Team Denmark +45 29 99 10 98 [email protected] Who we are Naval Team Denmark was founded in 1992 and subsequently approved by parliamentarian authorities in 1995.The organization works in close cooperation with the Royal Danish Navy and the Danish Defence. What we offer Naval Team Denmark was formed as a response to the international interest caused by the innovative and trend setting Standard Flex modular concept and its application in the fourteen Standard Flex 300 units. In the course of time focus has also been on many other advanced naval systems offered by Naval Team Denmark members, systems that are not directly linked to the application to the Standard Flex concept but have proved competitive and applicable to other types of naval ships. However it is noteworthy, that the modular idea is still reflected in all ships Vision Naval Team Denmark is an export organization formed by the major Danish defence industries within the naval sector. The organization works in close cooperation with the Royal Danish Navy. www.um.dk Contact Persons Ambassador Niels Boel Abrahamsen Lieutenant Colonel Per Lyse Rasmussen, Assistant Defence, Military, Naval and Air Attache / Defence Industrial Cooperation / Defence Section [email protected] Irina Vasiliu, Trade Advisor, [email protected] Who we are The Trade Council is the governmental export and investment promotion organization under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark. The organization comprises all governmental activities designed to promote Danish export and foreign investment in Denmark under one roof. With a mixture of well experienced Canadian and Danish employees, we assist companies in a range of assignments from partnership searches to in-depth market strategies. What we offer We strongly believe that Denmark has a lot to offer Canada. In the last decade, Danish Export to Canada has grown by 8.6% per annum which has made Canada one of the strongest growing export markets for Danish companies. English is spoken over the majority of Canada, making communication easy. Also contributing to export growth is the open mindedness of the Canadian population as well as the fact that Canadian values and preferences are very similar to Danish values and preferences. A stable and predictable political framework, coupled with a British inspired legal system, as well as a lack of corruption, also adds to the attractiveness of doing business in Canada. Vision We like to brand Canada as the “Scandinavian part of North America”. With this simplification we try to illustrate that Canada is a relatively “easy” export market, which all Danish companies with export and/or export aspiration should consider. www.odensemaritime.com Contact Pesons Capt.

  • De-Overvie Nato Defence Planning Capability Review
    ràai NORTH ATlANTIC COUNCIL L nL •)VÀ1LI CONSEIL DE UATLANTIQUE NoRD 22 May 2014 DOCUMENT C-M(2014)0027 (DE-OVERVIE NATO DEFENCE PLANNING CAPABILITY REVIEW 201312014 DENMARK OVERVIEW 1. The 2013-2017 Defence Agreement agreed in November 2012 by seven of the eight political parties represented in the Danish Parliament introduced measures to improve efficiency and inciudes a reduction of the defence budget by approximately 12% of the 2013 budget. As a result there will be major changes to the structure of the armed forces. However, there is a clear political objective that the budget cuts will not impact operational capability. Continued participation in operations is a priority within the Danish defence organisation and forces will continue to be configured to be able to deploy at short notice. The freeing of money spent on operations in Afghanistan, as a result of a reduced level of forces, will be reinvested in defence, into programmes designed to maintain operational capabilities in terms of training and materiel, but will not fully compensate for the budget reductions. 2. The aim of Denmark’s foreign and security policy is the promotion of national security and prosperity based on core values of freedom, democracy and human rights. NATO remains a cornerstone of Danish security and defence policy. Denmark’s armed forces, contributing to the defence dimension of its pro-active foreign and security policy, are actively engaged in current international operations, conducted under the aegis of NATO or the UN. Active engagement in the Arctic/High North is also of strategic importance to Denmark and to that end, in October 2012, two existing structures were merged into a Joint Arctic Command which was established in Nuuk, Greenland.

Formålet med rapporten er at studere og analysere de forskellige måder, hvorpå landene i Arktis benytter sig af lokale kapaciteter i forbindelse med maritim sikkerhed og beredskab i Arktis. Dette muliggør en vurdering af, hvordan beredskabsniveauet i nordlige farvande kan øges yderligere, samt hvilke spørgsmål som burde undersøges af fremtidige studier. Center for Militære Studier er et forskningscenter på Institut for Statskundskab på Københavns Universitet. På centret forskes der i sikkerheds- og forsvarspolitik samt militær strategi.
