“GSK has a strong commitment to operating responsibly and playing our part in meeting some of society’s biggest healthcare challenges.
Over the last decade, this has been seen in our commitment to place access to medicines at the centre of our business approach, in our innovation focused on diseases that impact the poorest countries – such as malaria – and in the changes we have made to our commercial model and sales and marketing practices.”
