The beginning of the company started when two small Danish companies ‘Nordisk Insulin Laboratorium’ and ‘Novo Terapeutisk Laboratorium’ founded in 1923 and 1925. The two companies started a production of Insulin that had just been discovered. Both companies had the same vision, they both wanted to develop products to benefit the people that suffered from diabetes.

In 1989 the two companies decided to merge into one and therefore created ‘Novo Nordisk. The company has ever since then been expanding rapidly within the market of diabetes, obesity care, hemophilia care, growth hormone therapy, and hormone replacement therapy.
