The dynamic and innovative IT and tech industry in North Denmark has grown from a historical foothold, which stems from a unique research community based around Aalborg University and a series of large, international corporations with R&D departments in Aalborg.

In fact, the integrated antenna for mobile phones was invented at Aalborg University some 30 years ago.

The discoveries made during those years marked the transition for Aalborg from a traditional industrial city towards a more modern knowledge city.

From the pieces of the first mobile technologies new and innovative companies, experts and researchers have emerged to create synergies and growth in North Denmark. Today you will find pioneering Danish and international companies working on the wireless solutions of the future.
