Denmark has the best pharma and biotech industry in Europe
Are you looking for a world-leading place to strengthen your biotechnology and pharmaceutical research and development? Denmark is the place - on the cutting edge.
There’s a reason why Denmark is the home of major international pharmaceutical companies such as Novo Nordisk, Lundbeck, LEO Pharma and ALK. It all started around 1900s, when the first Danish pharma companies built the foundations for our thriving life science sector. Their progressive innovation has created one of the world’s strongest biotech and pharma sectors.
Today, there is a strong tradition for collaboration between industry, universities and the public health sector, which makes Denmark a hotspot for pioneering R&D – offering excellent opportunities for your business.

When you need to test a new medical treatment, you’ll experience easy access to the clinical infrastructure in our hospitals, high approval rates of trial applications, and that the Danish health authorities are very open for relevant dialogues, as seen in below case example, which is a testament to why Denmark is a world leader in drug development with a very strong commercial pipeline of drugs in clinical development.
