Generating innovation through collaboration

Lundbeck is globally recognized as one of the leading companies within neurological and psychiatric disorders. 

Partnering with external specialists in their respective fields of brain disease is a cornerstone of our strategy, and we always strive to be the partner of choice. Lundbeck holds the knowledge, capabilities and financial stability to spur innovation, both through our internal laboratories and external partners.

We enter into partnerships recognizing that your business strengths are different and complementary to our own. This is why we customize each partnership to ensure value creation and to translate today’s know-how into tomorrow’s advancements in life-changing therapies.

Our primary ambition is to find innovative projects and products that will advance neuroscience and develop novel and innovative treatments for patients. By combining our internal R&D capabilities with external alliances, we significantly broaden the opportunities to achieve our end goal. These include:

• Discovery technology platforms
• Enabling technologies, such as biomarkers and imaging
• Digital platforms, such as wearables
• Discovery projects
• Pre-clinical projects
• Early and mid-stage developments projects
• Regional and global commercialized products

Successful partnerships, from early-stage science to commercialization, have been one of the main drivers in establishing Lundbeck’s current position in brain science. We actively seek access to external innovation, particularly where we see best-in-class opportunities to develop transformative medicines, and where we can leverage our own global drug development and commercial expertise to bring new medicines to patients.
