MindLab is a cross-ministerial innovation unit which involves citizens and businesses in developing new solutions for the public sector.
MindLab operates across ministries, having been established as a cooperation between the Ministry of Employment, the Ministry of Taxation and the Ministry of Economic and Business Affairs. In other words, it covers areas that together affect the daily lives of nearly all of Denmark’s citizens.
Examples are MindLab’s work on integration and equal opportunities, digital solutions, climate change and business regulation. Inevitably, MindLab’s activity is wide-ranging and the organization talks to many different people. In particular, MindLab does cross-disciplinary work in areas involving design, anthropology, sociology and political science.
MindLab maintains an international perspective, and it also receives visitors from around the globe who want to learn more about our work on renewing the public sector here in Denmark.
