Øresund Science Region is a cross-border initiative that aims to bring together regional authorities, businesses and universities. This so-called ‘triple-helix’ model is a focused approach to cooperation between universities and the surrounding society.

Developing the Øresund Region's strengths
Øresund Science Region uses and develops the Øresund Region’s unique strengths: a highly educated population and market-leading technology. These strengths are reflected by the region’s large number of researchers and high-technology companies.

Promoting knowledge-based economic development
The aim is to promote a knowledge-based economic development in the region. It is our view that the creation and transfer of new knowledge to the surrounding society is one of the crucial competitive factors for the region’s future economy, and for that reason we are focussing on these issues.

Øresund Science Region is a regional development project with innovation and research platforms and projects as tools.
