Danish biotech excels through collaboration

Denmark is a world frontrunner in biotech research, education and innovation

Today, Denmark is a global leader in areas such as enzymes, diabetes, CNS and cancer research. In fact, “Medicon Valley” in Denmark is the third largest commercial drug development pipeline in Europe.
