Strengthen your board of directors
A number of DLA Piper's partners and associates are active board members or chairmen of Danish commercial businesses and companies. When serving on the board of directors, our ambition is to be a value-adding resource and, together with the rest of the board, to take responsibility for the company's development through a commercial focus on strategy and strategic action plans.
