CopenhagenCopenhagen is Scandinavia’s most vibrant and lively capital, and one of Europe’s most user‐friendly cities.
Small (approximately 1 million inhabitants) and welcoming, it is a place where people and bicycles set the
pace, with a multitude of pavement cafés, pedestrians streets and cycle lanes.
Copenhagen offers a range of entertainments ranges from historic royal palaces, national museums, art
galleries, parks, canals and excellent shopping. By night, there are plenty of cosy bars, live music (especially
jazz) venues and choice of restaurants that could hardly be bettered. Copenhagen’s world‐known icons
include the Little Mermaid, Nyhavn (the ancient harbour of Copenhagen), Kronborg Slot (famous as the
setting for Shakespeare’s Hamlet), the historic amusement park Tivoli, as well as contemporary
architectural landmarks such as the new Copenaghen Opera House and the Black Diamond Royal Library
among others.
Copenhagen has been awarded the European Green Capital award by the European Commission in 2014.
Copenhagen has placed public‐private partnerships at the core of its approach to eco‐innovation and
sustainable employment. The jury singled out Copenhagen as a good model in terms of urban planning and
design. The city aims at becoming the world’s most practicable city for cyclists. Its goal is to have 50 % of
people cycling to their place of work or education by 2015 (35 % cycled to their workplace or school in
2010), helping the city reach an ambitious goal of being CO2 neutral by 2025.

CopenhagenAirportCopenhagen Airport, Kastrup (Danish: Københavns Lufthavn, Kastrup) (CPH) is the main international
airport serving Copenhagen, Denmark, the entire Zealand, the Øresund Region, and a large part of southern
Sweden. It is the largest airport in the Nordic countries with 23.3 and 24.1 million passengers per year in
2012 and 2013 respectively. The airport is located on the island of Amager, just 8 kilometres south of
Copenhagen city centre, and 25‐35 km from the Technical University of Denmark (depending on the
selected route).
The airport is the main hub out of three used by Scandinavian Airlines and is also an operating base for
Norwegian Air Shuttle. Copenhagen Airport handles 60 scheduled airlines and serves more than 62,000
passengers per day, making it the busiest airport in the Nordic countries. A considerable share of the
airport's passengers is international: the domestic part of the annual passengers is lower than 10%.
Copenhagen Airport has daily direct connection with all main European Airports, and it is also directly
connected to main intercontinental destinations (e.g. New York‐JFK, Dubai‐International, Beijing‐Capital,
Chicago‐O'Hare, Shanghai‐Pudong, Washington‐Dulles, Singapore, Bangkok‐Suvarnabhumi, Moscow‐
Sheremetyevo, Toronto‐Pearson, San Francisco‐Oakland, Tokio‐Narita).
There are trains every 2‐10 minutes from Copenhagen Airport which stops at the main stations of
Copenhagen (Nørreport, Østerport, Vesterport and Copenhagen Central Station). The price of a
ticket for this journey is 8 € and all in all it takes about 50 minutes to get to DTU. Detailed
information about how to get to DTU by public transportation from the airport and the main
stations of Copenhagen at: http://www.dtu.dk/english/About/Practical‐
information/Directions/DTU‐Lyngby‐Campus/public‐transportation
A taxi ride from Copenhagen Airport to DTU costs around 55 € on weekdays. The ride takes around
25‐30 minutes.
ReferencesThe Technical University of Denmark regularly hosts international conferences, seminar and workshops and
has a vast experience in providing organization and professional logistic support to such events. More than
100 took place at DTU since 2007. A full list is available at: http://indico.conferences.dtu.dk/.
The Section for Micro/Nano and Precision Manufacturing of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at
the Technical University is also familiar with the organization of large events. In 2013 it was the local
organizer of the 63rd General Assembly of the International Academy for Production Engineering (CIRP),
attended by more than 700 delegates. The Section is also the organizer (in collaboration with ATV‐SEMAPP
Denmark) of the Micro/Nano Moulding Seminar – Technologies and Applications, held every year since
2010, among other events.
