The power struggle in Novo Nordisk - medicine and billions

Det skal du vide

In this lecture you will get a unique insight into the power struggle at Novo Nordisk in 2025. Aimed at anyone with an interest in business, journalism and power, the lecture provides an understanding of what happens behind closed doors in a global company. In 2025, Novo Nordisk was rocked by a historic power struggle. The CEO was fired and the board resigned - in the midst of the company's greatest global success. But what really happened behind closed doors in Bagsværd? In this lecture, journalist and host on Zetland, Frederik Kulager, takes you into the engine room behind "The Shadow from Tuscany" - an audio documentary about Novo Nordisk, created in collaboration between Zetland and Dagbladet Børsen. He tells how, as a journalist, you cover one of the world's most closed and powerful companies, just as it stands in the middle of a storm of supply chaos, counterfeit goods and internal conflicts. - Date: 21 October 2026 - Time: 19:00–21:00 - Venue: Gentofte Hovedbibliotek - Address: Ahlmanns Alle 6, Hellerup, Denmark - Admission: From DKK 200
