For the last century, our company has been consistent in its overall mission to drive change to defeat diabetes and other serious chronic diseases. Today, the tools at our disposal are broader and more powerful than they were 100 years ago, when insulin had just been discovered. Yet the need for further innovation to realise our goal has never been greater, not least given the rise of obesity as one of the world’s foremost healthcare challenges. At a time of societal debate about purpose versus profit, Novo Nordisk shows how the two can go hand-in-hand. The development of our life-changing treatments creates financial rewards that are reinvested in further research and development, a model that we will continue to apply as we build a sustainable business for the decades to come. Over the past year, we have seen continued strong growth across both North America and International Operations and therapy areas. This was driven by exceptional demand for our market-leading GLP-1 therapies. In turn, this increase in demand led to further market share expansion for key products in both diabetes and obesity.
