Novo Nordisk India story
The genesis of Novo Nordisk India goes back to 1990 when a liaison office of Novo Nordisk A/S, was set up in Mumbai. Prior to this Novo Nordisk A/S products were marketed in India through various other companies. Even then, Novo Nordisk was involved in creating awareness in diabetes care with the help of healthcare professionals in India.
On April 1, 1994, Novo Nordisk (I) Pvt. Ltd. was set up with its headquarters in Bangalore with 26 employees. It has now been rechristened as Novo Nordisk India Private Limited.
In 1998, recognising the intense need to provide awareness and education in healthcare in India, the Novo Nordisk Education Foundation (NNEF) was founded. NNEF is a non-profit organisation, with a mission of ‘Enhancing healthcare through awareness and education’.
Novo Nordisk India’s portfolio of products and services deals with therapy areas in Diabetes, Human Growth Hormone and Haemostasis Management.
Novo Nordisk is synonymous with diabetes care inIndia . Novo Nordisk has introduced products and services hitherto not seen in the area of diabetes care in the country.
Over the last decade Novo Nordisk has been able to ensure that there is a marked improvement in the way people with diabetes live and work.
As part of our efforts to be at the forefront of bringing information to people with diabetes in India, we have attempted to highlight various aspects of diabetes which you would like to know about.
As part of our activities, we have always endeavoured to stay in touch with persons with diabetes as well as the medical fraternity.
