It will be analysed some specific entities working in Odense based on interviews done during the mobility in Denmark. Particular attention will be paid to two main pillars of the Danish System, the flexicurity and lifelong learning, and their importance and links with the economic innovation system. Moreover, it will be analysed the universities role and their relevance for the innovation and economic development, not just for education aims, but also for active labour policies: re-education and placement.
