Social Networks in Denmark
Updated 7.11.2018
For a social purpose many internationals go out and meet other international people, which most often happens in the larger cities or around international companies located more remotely in the countryside. Some international companies do also host their own social meetings, wine tasting, playing badminton, having quizzes etc.
Social events
People do meet in real life in Denmark! There are many social networks for expats and locals around the biggest cities in Denmark. Especially in
Copenhagen,
Aarhus,
Odense and
Aalborg. Copenhagen is leading the way with a
massive amount of meetups on meetups.com, where people meet in real life according to interest. There is also a lot of events being organized on facebook and other social medias. Some meetings are for social purposes and others can have a business purpose including socializing.
Social business events
Some people prefer more professionalized meetings, which can be organized through out innovation networks, embassies, industry interest organization. This is more formal networking, but often there will be some kind of food, wine or beer as part of the event, which also contains
informal socializing. In the Danish universities it is also possible to meet students, entrepreneurs, and company representatives.
Other inspirational sources
There are also other ways to get knowledge on the
living as an expat in the region and Denmark. For instance look into the Danish section on expatarrivals.com, and you could as well search for expat work life discussions on blogs on worktrotter.dk - highlighting positive and negative experience.
