Why become a member?

At MVA we do our utmost to make sure that you get the most out of your membership. Not all our activities directly affect all types of organizations - you can read more about what we can do specifically for your organisation.

But being a member is not only about what has a direct effect on your organization. Medicon Valley is a network of mutually dependent organizations and companies. So all members share a common interest in the development of the life science sector in Medicon Valley. Your membership contributes to this development and serves the common benefit of the whole of the life science community in Medicon Valley.

Fees from 1. january 2026

As of January 1st 2026 we start implementing an updated fee structure for membership in MVA.

All other members

Membership fees are based on the number of employees engaged in life science-related activities in the Medicon Valley region. For organizations active in multiple sectors, only employees working within life science activities are included in the calculation.

The annual fee consists of:

  • A base fee of DKK 15,900, covering up to 5 employees.
  • For employees 6-55, an additional DKK 550 per employee.
  • For employees above 55, the fee is reduced to DKK 275 per employee.

Companies hosted in incubators that hold a group membership with Medicon Valley Alliance may register as members free of charge.

The revised fee structure took effect on 1 January 2026 and will remain fixed until December 2029.

Membership fees for global organizations with local offices will be discussed individually as it may not be feasible to pay for the entire organization.

External memberships are available for organizations entirely located outside Medicon Valley and will be discussed individually. Please contact us for further details.

Price index regulation

Every year the membership fee is adjusted automatically according to the average of the Danish and Swedish net price index or decided by the Ordinary General Meeting. The membership fee will be invoiced once yearly in January.
