AstraZeneca

About

In 1999, two science-based companies with shared visions came together to form AstraZeneca: Sweden's Astra AB and the UK's Zeneca Group PLC. This strategic merger combined decades of pharmaceutical expertise, creating a global powerhouse uniquely positioned to push the boundaries of scientific discovery. What began as a union of strengths has evolved into a relentless pursuit of breakthrough therapies, with the company investing billions annually in research and development to transform patient outcomes across oncology, biopharmaceuticals, respiratory, and rare diseases.

Today, AstraZeneca stands at the forefront of precision medicine and next-generation therapeutics, harnessing the power of data science, AI, and innovative technologies like cell therapies. With 197 projects in the pipeline and 16 blockbuster medicines, the company operates from six strategic R&D centres spanning Cambridge, Gothenburg, Gaithersburg, Boston, Shanghai, and Beijing. Their bold aspiration to deliver 20 new medicines by 2030 reflects an unwavering commitment to following the science and putting patients first - values that have driven every decision since that pivotal merger more than two decades ago.
