The DABA Alliance formation
At the workshop 11 out of 12 regional Danish business organisations were represented: Japan, Pan-China (Beijing, Shanghai and South China) Vietnam, Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Cambodia and Thailand.
Prior to the workshop a comprehensive survey of the Danish Chambers of Commerce and Business Associations in the region was conducted by Decision Lab a Danish led consultant in Vietnam. The survey included a questionnaire to the board members of the organisations – 57 board members (almost all) answered the questionnaire, and these answers were followed up with a number of in-depth interviews. This survey constituted a very strong baseline for the workshop.
The one-day regional workshop was facilitated by DanCham Japan and Asia House, Copenhagen.
The workshop was financially supported by the EAC Foundation and Thai Airways International.
