Healthcare is undergoing tremendous changes but our vision is clear. We are doing now what patients need next. From developing diagnostics and treatments, to harnessing the power of data to shape innovations of the future, we are an integrated healthcare company with a culture of integrity, courage and passion.
For over 125 years, we’ve been developing diagnostics and medicines for a wide range of chronic and life threatening health conditions that continue to revolutionise healthcare. Being a family-owned company allows us to focus on long-lasting investments, take greater risks and explore innovative new ways to improve people’s health around the world.
As a global leader in healthcare, we are one of the world’s largest biotech companies and the leading supplier of in-vitro diagnostics. We’re an innovator across major disease areas, including oncology, neurology, infectious diseases, and ophthalmology. We’ve partnered with many forward-thinking, entrepreneurial and groundbreaking organisations that have one thing in common - the belief that cutting-edge science and technology can and will improve human health.
We focus on fitting treatments to patients: providing the right therapy for the right patient to ensure the best response at the right time for the right value. Our approach combines our rich expertise in pharmaceuticals and diagnostics with expanded data science capabilities to drive more effective and efficient research and enable better therapeutic decisions for patients.
