Novo Nordisk Limited
We are a leading global healthcare organisation with a mission to drive change to defeat serious chronic diseases.
We have been operating in Ireland for over 47 years, supporting a significant number of patients nationwide. In 2024, we grew our presence in Ireland to over 470 employees, adding manufacturing capacity with a site in Athlone.
Novo Nordisk employs over 64,000 people globally.
This year, we adopted a new 3-year strategy, A Healthier Ireland, setting out our renewed focus to address Ireland’s high chronic disease burden.
As part of our Circular for Zero environmental strategy, we are determined to achieve net zero emissions across our global value chain by 2045 and to reach zero CO2 emissions from operations and transport by 2030.
Novo Nordisk recently supported an initiative to provide cycling equipment to DEIS primary schools across Ireland and has been partnering with the DCU Access Stewardship Programme since 2018.
The Novo Nordisk Foundation provides over €1 billion in funding for research, sustainability, social, and humanitarian causes.
