“It all began in 1837 when young Carlo Erba, after obtaining a degree in Pharmaceutics at Pavia University, decided to start his own company and created Italy’s first pharmaceutical industry, in the small laboratory of his pharmacy located in the ancient Milanese district of Brera. It would then develop through the years with laboratories, shops, factories and hundreds of employees.” (The fascinating story that transformed a profession, Museo Nazionale della Scienza e della Tecnologia)
