Austria

GSK is a global biopharma company with the ambition and purpose to unite science, technology and talent to get ahead of disease together.

We aim to positively impact the health of 2.5 billion people over the next 10 years. Our bold ambitions for patients are reflected in new commitments to growth and a step-change in performance. Furthermore, we offer a working environment in which our employees can develop.

We prioritise innovation in vaccines and specialty medicines, maximising the increasing opportunities to prevent and treat disease. At the heart of this is our R&D focus on the science of the immune system, human genetics and advanced technologies, and our world-leading capabilities in vaccines and medicines development. We will focus on four therapeutic areas: infectious diseases, HIV, oncology, and immunology.

GSKPro, our portal for healthcare professionals, provides important information about our products, access to videos and webcasts, and access to educational events and other GSK services.

Transparency

GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), a member of Transparency International Austria, already took a number of transparency initiatives many years ago that go beyond the usual industry standards. Following the introduction of the first online register of clinical trial results by GSK in 2004 and the publication of payments to patient groups since 2006, all monetary benefits paid to healthcare professionals' relatives and institutions have been disclosed annually since 2016 - in accordance with the EFPIA Disclosure Code.
