Our strategy

Our strategy, Focus. Together. For patients & society, consists of four strategic priorities that guide our decision-making.

We are focused on ensuring patients have access to our treatments, collaborating with them and with patient organizations to unlock key insights that will allow us to deliver advancements. We work tirelessly to ensure patients have access to our innovative treatments.

We’re committed to building a robust, sustainable pipeline across all stages of development and in each of our three therapy areas so that we can continue to deliver innovative treatments, now and in the future. We seek out biotechs, academic institutions and other partners who share our vision of making a real impact for patients, and we aim to deliver at least one molecular entity or meaningful indication every year.

We focus our efforts and resources where they will move the needle for patients. By creating efficiencies, we can make the right investments at the right time to bring new, innovative therapies to patients around the world.

Our team of over 5,000 talented and dedicated professionals around the world endeavors every day to develop and build our capabilities. With our science-led and patient-driven approach, we grow together in a supportive environment.
