The LEO Foundation

LEO Pharma is owned by the LEO Foundation. This is an independent, private institution which enables us to commit to the long-term research goals and expansion plans that are necessary to continue the development of LEO Pharma as a successful, efficient, responsible and professional research-based company.

Being owned by a foundation means that LEO Pharma has no external shareholders and is totally independent of outside capital. In other words, we own ourselves.

"What the Foundation means is that we’re not working for shareholders. We make decisions for ourselves, based on what we believe is right for the company and for patients."
