Hans Lundbeck died in 1943, and Poul Viggo Petersen was employed to build up Lundbecks pharmaceutical research. thanks to his efforts, Lundbeck was able to create a niche for itself in psychopharmaceuticals. 1915-1930 The first years as a Danish trading company 1945-1960 The foundation of Lundbecks cns expertise Hans Lundbeck founded an agency in Copenhagen on 14 august 1915. the company dealt in everything from machinery, biscuits, confectionery, sweeteners, cinema equipment and cameras to photographic paper and aluminium foil, besides renting out vacuum cleaners. During its first years, the business was operated as a trading company, but, from the mid-1920s, pharmaceuticals were added to its range of products. eduard goldschmidt was hired in 1924, bringing into the company a number of new agency contracts for drugs: suppositories for haemorrhoids, painkillers etc. Cologne and creams were also added to the portfolio. During the years following World War ii, Lundbeck intensified its research, laying the foundation stone for the drugs which would later make Lundbeck world famous. as the result of these efforts, Lundbeck was able to introduce truxal® in 1957, one of the first drugs for treatment of schizophrenia. in 1954, Mrs grete Lundbeck, the widow of Lundbecks founder, established the Lundbeck Foundation for the purpose of ensuring and expanding Lundbecks business operations, as well as for providing financial support for primarily scientific objectives and fight against diseases.
