Novartis statement of strategy
Novartis has completed its transformation into a “pure-play” innovative medicines business, with the successful spin-off of Sandoz. Our focus is now centered on four core therapeutic areas (cardiovascular, renal and metabolic; immunology; neuroscience, and oncology)
In each of these areas, we have multiple significant in-market and pipeline assets, all of which address diseases with a high burden and have substantial growth potential. In addition to two established technology platforms (chemistry and biotherapeutics), three emerging platforms (gene & cell therapy, radioligand therapy, and xRNA) are being prioritized for continued investment into new R&D capabilities and manufacturing scale. Geographically, we are focused on growing in our priority geographies – the US, China, Germany and Japan.
