Thomas Bach Nielsen is Director Robotics & Advanced Automation at Novo Nordisk.

At Novo Nordisk, we are driving change to defeat diabetes and other serious chronic conditions. Diabetes poses one of today’s biggest global health challenges. We work for a future where fewer people get diabetes, everyone with diabetes is diagnosed, and everyone who is diagnosed receives adequate treatment and can live a life with as few limitations as possible. Since the company was founded in Denmark more than 95 years ago, we have been changing diabetes. This heritage has given us experience and capabilities that also enable us to help people defeat other serious chronic conditions: haemophilia, growth disorders and obesity. Our ambition is to take the lead in each of these areas, driving change with an unfailing belief that it can be done.
