💼 The Greater Copenhagen region has evolved into a powerhouse, with a regional GDP exceeding €200 billion—on par with Stockholm and higher than Berlin, Oslo, and Hamburg. This remarkable growth has been driven by cross-border collaboration, particularly between Sweden and Denmark, anchored by the Öresund Bridge. But realising the full potential of this thriving region isn’t without its challenges, key hurdles include: 🟢 Transportation Integration: Aligning public transportation systems between Denmark and Sweden. 🟢 Joint infrastructure planning: With the upcoming Fehmarn belt tunnel linking Denmark to Germany, joint planning is essential to manage increased freight traffic and support sustainable growth. 🟢 Regulatory Alignment: Differences in labor laws, tax regulations, and pension systems create unnecessary complications for workers and employers on both sides of the border. In our NEW #COGITO blog, Greater Copenhagen's Jan Hendeliowitz explores what's next for the thriving region. Full article 🔗 https://brnw.ch/21wM6Ab
