A delegation of 35 Danish professionals recently visited Partnership Tower as part of efforts to strengthen Denmark’s space ecosystem by identifying growth and collaboration opportunities in the greater Houston region. The visit was the first of its kind, marking the largest contingent of Danish space professionals to ever visit Houston – a culmination of planning and collaboration that began in August 2022.
As part of their visit to Houston, the delegation visited Rice University’s Space Institute and the University of Houston-Clear Lake, where they met with Intuitive Machines, Nanoracks, Barrios Technologies and KBR. The delegation also made visits to Jacobs, the Johnson Space Center and the Houston Space Port before capping off the trip with a visit to Boca Chica and a tour of SpaceX.
The Danish space delegation visit will serve as a template to establish more productive conversations and connections with representatives from Denmark and other nations seeking to expand their space-focused operations in Houston.
