The Indo-Danish relations have existed for more than 400 years, starting with the trade relations established in Tranquebar in 1620. Since then, India and Denmark have continuously inspired and influenced each other, and in 1949, after India gained independence in 1947, diplomatic relations were established.

In 2009, a Joint Commission for Cooperation was established with Joint Working Groups within strategic sectors: energy, environment, food and agriculture, science and innovation, shipping, labour mobility, smart cities, and digitalisation. The agreement built on a newly found mutual interest in renewable energy and was the start of a new collaboration.

Tomorrow we will continue to dig into how Green Strategic Partnership came into existence.
