Danish Maritime was formerly the Danish Shipbuilders Association, but with the sharp decline in the number of shipyards in this country, the association has widened its scope to include Danish providers of marine equipment and services. It is not a large association, with some 17 member companies, but it maintains offices in Copenhagen and Brussels with a full-time staff and manages to represent the industry's interests at local and international levels. Shipping and shipbuilding are important sectors in Denmark, representing a significant proportion of national turnover.
