It has spent the past decade narrowing itself into a pure innovative medicines business, spinning off its generics arm as Sandoz in 2023 and its eye care business as Alcon in 2019, and now concentrates on cardiovascular, immunology, neuroscience and oncology, including radioligand therapies and gene therapy. Headquartered in Basel and listed in Zurich and New York, it is among the largest research spenders in the industry.
