1992

EGN was established in 1992 in Svendborg, Denmark by Jeanette and Jørgen Galsgaard. The idea came when Jørgen, working as a Finance Manager at the time, was faced with a difficult challenge, and he wanted to find someone who could provide insights. This led to him starting the very first peer group for Finance Managers.
