Inclusion isn’t an event

Denmark is facing a significant challenge in retaining internationals with Copenhagen Capacity’s recent Export Survey 2025, highlighted that 50% of internationals leave within 5 years.

Dansk Erhverv states that internationals contribute over 361 billion DKK to the Danish economy with over 330,000 internationals in full-time employment based on Q1 and Q2 2025 figures. The big question is why is workplace inclusion so hard to implement?
