Speaker: Preben B. Pedersen, Executive Director of the Northwest Danish Association

Preben B. Pedersen is the current Executive Director of the Northwest Danish Association (NWDA). His journey to the PNW started as an AFS foreign exchange student in Ohio in 1975. After that he returned to Denmark where he got a business degree which resulted in an international career with long term expatriate positions in the USA, Germany, Thailand, Philippines and short term assignments in many other countries in Europe and Asia. After his last assignment in Asia, he returned to the US in 2002 for his 3rd stay, where he initially worked and lived in Iowa for 2 years before returning to WA for the 2nd time in 2004. In 2004 he and his wife had twins, so WA became the place where they raised their children. Preben has worked primarily in financial positions as Financial Controller, CFO etc. and other management positions for primarily Danish subsidiaries in different countries. In 2020 he took on the role as Treasurer for NWDA and at the end of 2023 he also took on the role as Full time Executive Director.
