Foreningen af ErhvervsJurister

What Foreningen af ErhvervsJurister does

Foreningen af Erhvervsjurister (FEJ) is a Danish non-profit student association serving HA(jur.) and Cand.merc.(jur.) students at Copenhagen Business School. Founded in 2019 (per company history; an older firmographic source states 1987) and headquartered at Solbjerg Plads 3, Frederiksberg (CVR 36566817), FEJ operates with a small staff of 5 and a 9-member volunteer board (6 elected members plus 3 committee representatives). The association runs 7 committees spanning social events (Arrangementsudvalget, Festudvalget), professional development (Erhvervsudvalget), and sports (Fodboldudvalget, Skiudvalget), with an estimated 2,000+ eligible members drawn from the CBS HA(jur.) and Cand.merc.(jur.) programs.

FEJ's core offering is a unified membership that provides access to social events, company visits, a job portal, partner discounts, and the new Det Erhvervsjuridiske Råd (Business Law Council) launched in June 2026. The technology stack is deliberately lightweight: a WordPress website (fej.dk) for information and membership sign-ups, and the Orbi platform for event registration and newsletter distribution. There is no proprietary software product, mobile app, or API.

Revenue is generated through two streams: annual student membership fees (amount not publicly disclosed) and tiered corporate sponsorship (Diamond, Gold, Silver). The partner ecosystem is concentrated among major Danish law firms and the Big Four, including DLA Piper, EY, KPMG Acor Tax, PwC, Plesner, Poul Schmith / Kammeradvokaten, Kromann Reumert, DI, DJØF, HDI, BechBruun, Beierholm, and HortenDahl, plus minor consumer-facing discount partners. In June 2026, FEJ launched Det Erhvervsjuridiske Råd, a 11-member strategic council with representatives from academia, employers, and practice, broadening the association's mandate beyond student life into industry-level dialogue on the future of the business law profession in Denmark.

Expansion highlights4 records

Regional players

• SR-Samfundet (Lunds Universitet): Sweden's largest law student association at Lund University, operating a similar event-driven, sponsorship-funded model in the Swedish legal market. Comparable model, but operates in a different geography and legal-recruitment ecosystem.
• Juridiske Studentersamfund (UiO): Law student society at the University of Oslo, providing social and career programming for Norwegian law students. Functional peer operating in the Norwegian market with similar member dues and employer partnership structures.

Direct peers

• JURF (Aarhus Universitet): Law student association at Aarhus University (jurf.dk), providing social and professional programming for Danish law students. Functional twin to FEJ operating at a competing Danish university, useful for benchmarking on sponsorship tiers and event scale.
• MSF (Management Society of Frederiksberg): One of the largest student associations at CBS, serving management students with company visits, case competitions, and corporate sponsorships. Closest campus-internal peer to FEJ with a near-identical sponsorship-driven GTM motion.
• ELSA Denmark (European Law Students' Association): The Danish national chapter of ELSA, the pan-European law student network offering academic activities, moot courts, and student mobility programmes. Directly competes with FEJ for the same Danish law student membership pool and law firm sponsorships.
• Juridisk Forening (Københavns Universitet): The law student association at the University of Copenhagen (KU), running social events, career events, and corporate partnerships for Danish law students. Most direct analogue to FEJ within Denmark, operating on the same membership-plus-sponsorship model.
• CBS Students (CBS Studenterforening): Central student organization at Copenhagen Business School, coordinating between the university's many programme-specific associations including FEJ. Provides the institutional umbrella and shared services that FEJ relies on.

Broad incumbents

• Danske Advokater: The Danish Bar Association, representing all licensed lawyers in Denmark. Indirectly comparable: FEJ is one of the talent-feeders feeding into this profession, and several Danske Advokater member firms (Plesner, Kromann Reumert, Bech-Bruun) are FEJ sponsors.
• DJØF (Dansk Jurist- og Økonomforbund): Denmark's largest professional association for lawyers and economists, and FEJ's Diamond partner. Operates one tier above FEJ (serving professionals rather than students), but provides membership, career, and advocacy services through a similar dues-and-partnership model.

Others

• Advokatsamfundet: Statutory governing body for Danish lawyers, administering the legal profession. Not a direct peer to FEJ, but shapes the regulatory and professional context within which FEJ's sponsors and future members operate.
