Key Takeaways
This August, Denmark’s defence sector came alive with DALO Industry Days, followed by ETK Industridagen 2025 in September, offering a unique platform to explore the evolving needs for constructing barracks, office spaces, and technical facilities.
DALO Industry Days brought together over 600 exhibitors and 12,000 participants, providing early insights into Denmark’s multi-year defence plans, framework agreements, and upcoming project opportunities.
Key insights included:
-
Early visibility into large-scale, multi-year investment plans.
-
Strong focus on modular, flexible, and sustainable construction solutions.
-
Strategic opportunities for suppliers, contractors, and technology providers to align with priority projects.
ETK Industridagen further showcased major defence construction projects, including PPP agreements for barracks, with a focus on faster implementation, modularity, and sustainability. The event convened industry professionals for in-depth discussions on upcoming tenders, innovative solutions, and strategies.

“Some days stand out because they move things forward in ways you didn’t quite expect. Today was one of those days. Conversations about the challenges facing the Danish defence quickly turned into opportunities for real dialogue, fresh ideas, and new partnerships. I’m grateful to Building Network for creating possibilities and opening doors, and to ETK for orchestrating such a smooth and inspiring setting.”
