Novo Nordisk and Glooko announces that the two companies will work together to deliver jointly-developed and branded digital health solutions for people with diabetes.
The non-exclusive collaboration will combine Novo Nordisk’s knowledge of diabetes with Glooko’s digital platform and data analytics expertise.
Building on Glooko’s mobile and web platforms, the companies aim to deliver personalised, digital services to support people with diabetes in areas including treatment adherence and blood glucose management. The partnership’s joint offerings will also assist healthcare professionals to engage and manage patients with the aid of population-wide data reporting. By integrating these offerings within its Digital Health Platform developed with IBM Watson Health, Novo Nordisk aims to generate increasingly valuable insights into diabetes management and treatment outcomes.
Commenting on the agreement, Christian Kanstrup, senior vice president, Strategy, Access & Marketing, Novo Nordisk said: “We are excited to partner with Glooko and to take another step towards delivering digital health offerings that help people with diabetes to improve their blood glucose control. Working in partnerships will furthermore enhance our ability to demonstrate the real-world value of our portfolio of diabetes treatments.”
“Glooko’s partnership with Novo Nordisk aims to empower tens of millions of patients with digital tools to make diabetes management easier”, said Rick Altinger, Glooko CEO. “We look forward to delivering jointly-branded capabilities that will enhance the collaboration between patient and healthcare professionals and enable us to provide joint offerings to people living with diabetes around the world.”
