About

Den Danske Maritime Fond is a Danish foundation dedicated to supporting the development of the maritime sector in Denmark. The foundation creates the foundation for growth, innovation, and green transition in the maritime industry by bridging startups and companies, trade and interest organizations, business houses, maritime educational institutions and universities, authorities, and politicians. They provide financial support through two main categories: loans for maritime entrepreneurship and innovation (up to 50% of project budgets), and donations for public benefit projects including maritime business development, maritime education and recruitment, and maritime research.

Donationer til almennyttige projekter

Den Danske Maritime Fond offers support for charitable maritime projects in Denmark. The foundation supports innovative and future-oriented projects that contribute to the development of Denmark's maritime sector. Projects must have a charitable purpose and form the basis for broad knowledge sharing in the maritime industry. The foundation aims to build bridges between maritime companies, business organizations, educational institutions, universities, authorities, and politicians to create optimal conditions for developing the Blue Denmark and creating more maritime jobs. The fund supports three types of charitable projects: maritime business development (including conferences, events, campaigns, policy initiatives, and analyses), maritime education and recruitment (developing maritime education programs and strengthening the industry's recruitment capabilities, including limited MBA scholarships), and maritime research (projects addressing current challenges such as green transition, digitalization, automation, and business development). Applicants can seek support to cover part of the direct costs of their project, but are expected to contribute part of the financing themselves. Research project results must be shared and communicated to the industry so that as many as possible benefit from them.

Lån til maritimt iværksætteri og innovation

Den Danske Maritime Fond offers risk-willing financing to projects that promote the development of the maritime sector in Denmark. The fund provides loans to maritime startups, scaleups, and innovation projects in established companies. The goal is to strengthen Denmark's international position as a maritime nation and establish Denmark as a green and digital leader in the maritime sector. The fund primarily supports the development of innovative and future-oriented projects within the maritime industry across four key areas: revenue growth, operational optimization, climate and environment, and health, safety, and security. Applicants can receive loans of up to 50% of the start-up capital needed to realize their ideas. The loans have a repayment-free period of typically 3-4 years from the approval of the application, after which the loan must be repaid over a period of 3 years with fixed repayment installments. This financing structure is designed to support projects from their early stages and encourage risk-taking in innovative maritime ventures.
