A patent worth billions

In today’s Børsen (Danish newspaper) there is an article about Danish biotech company Nordic Bioscience who together with Novartis have developed a treatment for Osteoporosis. I found the patent family surrounding the new medicine. Those patents bear a major part of the blame for increasing the inventors fortune several billions DKK if the drug is succesful. 

 

The inventor Claus Christiansen is also a great example of how an inventor can create a successful company based on his profession (Claus is a medical doctor)
