Einar W. Sissener

Einar W. Sissener (10 February 1929 - 22 June 2008) was a Norwegian businessperson, known as CEO of Alpharma.

His grandfather founded the pharmacy company "Apothekernes Laboratorium" in 1903. Sissener took over the leadership of the company from his father. A sister company A.L. Laboratories Inc was established in the United States in 1975, and listed on the American Stock Exchange in 1984. Apothekernes Laboratorium was listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 1989. The companies were merged, and the name changed to Alpharma, in 1994. [ [http://www.alpharma.com/pages/getpage.aspx?id=4915de98-d45d-4151-9b7d-6687108d72a2 History of the company] - Alpharma.com] Sissener retired as CEO in 2000; from 2000 to 2006 he was chairman of the board.

Sissener has been active in sport sailing, sometimes sailing on the boat of King Harald V. His own sailboat was curiously named "Al Cap One".

In 2003, The Norwegian Supreme Court found him guilty of luring his brother and late sister's children after his father, wilhelm, passed away. Einar W. was then forced to pay a compensation to them. However, the compensation only included what the difference in price was in 1977, and no consideration was given to interest, interests interest or the missing growth in the stock price. [3]

He died at the age of 79 at Ullevål University Hospital.
