fOnly two weeks in, and 2026 is already starting out strong with new investments that will have a significant positive effect and support the Danish quantum ecosystem!
Today, the Novo Nordisk Fundation announced that they awarded DKK 5.5 billion (€ 736 mio.) to BioInnovation Institute. This is the largest ever grant awarded by the Novo Nordisk Foundation to a single recipient.
The funding frame runs from 2026 – 2035 and will enable the institute to expand its activities into new strategic areas and geographies, and support even more entrepreneurs and start-up companies, thereby strengthening innovation across Denmark and Europe. This will also enable BII to become even stronger within technological fields such as quantum and AI.
This is extremely great news for Danish Innovation and the Danish quantum ecosystem.
