Following the footsteps of our founder

Dr. Dr. Herbert Falk founded our company in 1960. When he passed away, his granddaughter Elena was still quite young and therefore she never really met him. And because she wanted to know what kind of person he was and what people connected with him – especially regarding the company he created - she decided to follow her grandpa's footsteps:

In Italy, Elena first spoke with Giuseppe Isoni and Nicola Talamo at the Dr. Falk Pharma office in Milano. Afterwards, she travelled to Padova to meet Prof. Edoardo Savarino and was told lots of nice stories about Falk.*

About his work and setting up the still new Falk site in Italy.

How he knows Falk and about his start with the company.

First stop for Elena on her journey: Switzerland! Find out who she met and which places she visited.

Elena's second stop on her journey: the Dr. Falk Pharma headquarters in Freiburg, Germany.

After Switzerland and Freiburg, the next stop for Elena was the UK. Again, she met many people who told her about Falk and her grandpa.

In Austria, Manuel Redmann changed his job description for a couple of days and brought Elena to people who shared their Falk stories with her.

 In Amsterdam she heard from people who haven't been with the company for long what it is like to work for Falk.

Her trip took her from Bordeaux, via Paris to Lyon - with beautiful encounters, an interview in French and a map challenge on a train...

In Madrid, Elena learned a lot about her grandfather and was once again told touching stories.

Elena found out a lot about the importance of Falk meetings and her grandpa in Porto.

Stay tuned to follow Elena on her journey - we will be adding new videos daily.
