Experience of former interns

Maria Ingvardsen, MSc International Business at Copenhagen Business School, Trade intern 2023-24

My internship with the Danish Trade Council in Sydney has been an exciting and very rewarding experience. My learning curve have been steep as I have been involved in various activities and projects supporting talented colleagues from whom I've learned a great deal. During my time at the Trade Council I have gained valuable insights into economic diplomacy, foreign affairs, trade, the green transition and the Australian politics and business landscape.

In addition to my professional journey I have really enjoyed living in Sydney which is an absolutely fantastic city! Australians are always kind and helpful, and the city's cultural and natural scene is rich; there is always something new and exciting to experience. The city offers a unique blend of urban vibrancy, diverse culture, world-class cuisine, laid-back lifestyle and beautiful nature to explore, surrounded by beaches and with mountains close by. Finally, it is also a great point of departure for exploring all the great places in Australia.
