Alvogen company history timeline

2008

The odds were not in Wessman’s favour: the global economic crash had left him with an empty wallet and, by the time he left Actavis in 2008, the crisis had cost him a whopping $250m.

2013

Alvogen has also ventured into the biosimilars space via its sister company Alvotech, which was founded by Wessman in 2013.

2016

Since January 2016, the index for listed generic companies dropped by 57 percent, while the broader index by Standard & Poor’s grew by well over 20 percent in the same period.

2017

Meanwhile, in June 2017, the US Supreme Court ruled biosimilar companies would be able to essentially launch products upon approval, by allowing companies to provide notice of the drug’s launch prior to the FDA’s final sign off.

2022

However, projections suggest this figure could reach $36bn by 2022.
