They strive to improve interaction between universities, hospitals, and businesses by investing in talented researchers, entrepreneurs, and innovation.

They also aim to become an active voice in public debate, contributing to the development and internationalisation of Danish health research and business culture, and broadening society’s understanding of the brain and its diseases. Lundbeckfonden's investment strategy emphasizes long-term value creation. They focus on strategic ownerships in established healthcare companies and investments in biotech companies. The foundation seeks to improve lives and steer society in a healthier direction, with an ambition for Denmark to become a leading research nation in healthcare. They aim to fund research that promotes a better understanding of the brain and better prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of brain disorders. The foundation's commitment to social responsibility is reflected in their activities as an owner, investor, and grant-maker. They are committed to transparency and adhere to high standards of governance. They report to the UN Global Compact on their activities to comply with and raise awareness of responsible business principles. The Lundbeck Foundation also implements a whistleblower scheme to promote transparency and accountability in their operations.
