Speaker: Per Falk, MD, PhD, Associate Professor, VP, Clinical Development, Medical & Regulatory Affairs, Novo Nordisk

Topic:  "How a Healthcare Focus can Increase Your Company's Bottom Line"   

Novo Nordisk hosts the Chamber's August Breakfast in the café at their new location conveniently located near Rt. 1 where you will learn how a focus on good health can increase your company's bottom line.

The recently passed health care reform bill means a new day for wellness programs. The health care and insurance industries are going to change drastically and in order to remain profitable, health insurers are going to have to redevelop their business models. Many feel that the number of health incentives offered by employers to their employees will increase substantially thus resulting in lower health care premiums for employers.

Dr. Per Falk joined Novo Nordisk in 2002 as a vice president to establish the Experimental Medicine unit in Denmark. Later he served the company in Tokyo where he was responsible for drug development and market authorization of Novo Nordisk's medical entities in Japan and Australia. In 2008, Dr. Falk transitioned to the United States as the associate vice president of Clinical Development & Medical Affairs - Diabetes & Metabolism where he was responsible for clinical development and medical affairs for all of Novo Nordisk's diabetes and metabolism products, including those in development, and on the market.
