Zealand Pharma

Recently, a group of Zealanders gathered in Orlando to attend the 2024 American Diabetes Association Scientific Sessions and what a conference it was! Our team not only got to share insights and present data, but also participate in discussions and learn from other disease area experts and key opinion leaders.   Some of the key highlights from the meeting were: ⭐ Positive trend in obesity being recognized as a global disease ⭐ Great talks about reducing the stigma around overweight and obesity ⭐ There is a trend towards treating overall health in people with overweight and obesity, and not a sole focus on the disease   Thank you to all the Zealanders that could attend, we couldn’t do it without you: Evan C. Frary MD, JD, Chandra Slusser, John Sink II, Bill Vestergaard, Stanislava Macura, Thue Johansen, Mette Svendgaard, Mette Hammer, Nancy Hunter, Louise Dalgas Høeg and Ivan Moller  

Zealand Pharma is pleased to announce gross proceeds of USD 1 billion (DKK 7 billion) raised through the completion of an upsized equity offering of 8,350,000 new shares to institutional and professional investors.

The verdict is in: Zealand Pharma ranks 2nd for best image among 37 large and trend-setting Life Science companies in Denmark. 🏅 Earlier this year, MedWatch surveyed nearly 4000 people in Denmark to uncover perceptions about major companies in pharmaceuticals and medical device. The survey participants were both people working in Life Science and people from the general public.   We are proud to see that Zealanders are proud to work here. We couldn’t do it without them! Alongside our overall 2nd place ranking, Zealand Pharma had the greatest improvement overall and was ranked #1 for involving employees in making important decisions. Interested in joining our team?
