AstraZeneca is a global, science-led biopharmaceutical company that focuses on the discovery, development and commercialisation of prescription medicines, primarily for the treatment of diseases in three main therapy areas – Oncology, Cardiovascular & Metabolic Disease and Respiratory. We are also selectively active in the areas of autoimmunity, neuroscience and infection. Its presence in Hong Kong – in the name of AstraZeneca Hong Kong – can be traced back to 1999 when AstraZeneca was formed following a merger of Astra AB of Sweden and Zeneca Group PLC of the UK. Both companies were established in Hong Kong in the 1970s.
AstraZeneca Hong Kong oversees both the Hong Kong and Macau markets and attaches a strong importance to them. Since our establishment, we have been focusing on identifying and bringing in the latest medical solutions as well as seeking ongoing business development. Over the years, we have been continually expanding our business in order to meet the growing demand of the markets.
