Novo Nordisk is today hosting a Capital Markets Day (CMD) where the company is providing a progress update on its Strategic Aspirations 2025.

The Strategic Aspirations 2025 were introduced in 2019 to reflect the broad aspects of Novo Nordisk’s business including purpose and sustainability (ESG), the sustained growth opportunities until 2025 across therapy areas and geographies as well as future growth drivers of Novo Nordisk in the research and development pipeline.
