Investing in healthcare – for the benefit of patients and society

As a commercial foundation, we invest a significant proportion of our assets in our strategic ownerships: H. Lundbeck, ALK, Falck, Ferrosan Medical Devices and Ellab. However, we are also an engaged investor in international life-science companies and biotech start-ups based on Danish research. An important element of our 2030 strategy is for all five portfolios to grow in the coming years.

Through our ownership and various investing activities, we add value for research, patients and society in general. We invest with a long-term perspective. We are an incubator for Danish biotech companies, and we develop and internationalise Danish life science.
