Kalundborg, Denmark—On a boat off Kalundborg harbor, Martin Høgh Sørensen steers while his wife, Karin, and friends Michael and Anne-Louise Eliasen tug and wind ropes to maneuver the sails.The quartet have between them notched almost 100 years of work for the local pharmaceutical business or its sister company — the formertransforming life in this small Danish city.Because, a few years ago, Novo Nordisk struck proverbial gold: The company realized the active ingredient in its diabetes drug Ozempic caused patients to lose substantial amounts of weight. Soon enough, its Kalundborg factory began pumping out Wegovy, a drug approved for weight loss that uses the same active ingredient.“A lot of people from Kalundborg used to commute to Copenhagen,” Sørensen, 69, told CNN. “Now it’s going the other way around.”The ensuing worldwide clamor for Novo’s “wonder drugs” catapulted it to become, in 2023, Europe’smost valuable company. Danske Bank, the country’s biggest bank, also credits the firm as sparing Denmark’s economy from recession that year.Martin Høgh Sørensen steers his boat in Kalundborg, Denmark while friend Michael Eliasen controls the sails.Matthew Brealey/CNNSørensen works for Novo Nordisk Engineering, a company helping to expand the Kalundborg factory, part of Novo’s mammoth $9.3 billon investment into the area since 2021. He is, “of course, a little proud” of his city of fewer than 17,000 people that now finds itself an unlikely focal point of the global weight loss revolution.Still, revolutions rarely come easy. Novo’s share price has plunged by almost three quarters since its peak in 2024 and has slipped downthe rankingof Europe’s most valuable companies. It has also announced thousands of layoffs and expects sales and profit to drop by as much as 12% over 2026.So, what happened? And what does it mean for modern-day boomtown Kalundborg?The first mover ‘curse’Novo has “gone from having this unmatched capability… to now being quite exposed,” said Michael Leucht
