On Friday 21 February 2020, we celebrated the 19 Danish small and medium sized enterprises that in the course of 2019 had completed UNDP's innovation programme 'SDG Accelerator for SMEs'.

The companies are coming from a variety of industries, ranging from fashion and beauty to infrastructure, agriculture and industrial solutions – from high fashion in Copenhagen to potato flour in rural Brande. Check out all the solutions here. 

The SDG Accelerator was launched by UNDP and the Danish Industry Foundation two years ago and has been implemented in collaboration with Monitor Deloitte.

Thank you to the 19 participating companies in 2019: Ganni, Sera Scandia, Unibio, Friland, Casa, Wood Wood, AquaPri, Pack Tech, Shark Solutions, KMC, SwipBox, Bramidan, Eltronic, Aquaporin, Nordisk, Rudolph Care, Fors, Stryhns og Via Biler.
