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.

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.
