AstraZeneca
Corporate Profile
AstraZeneca is one of the world's leading pharmaceutical
companies with a formidable product portfolio spanning seven
major therapeutic areas: respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal,
oncology, pain control, central nervous system and infection.
As a research-oriented company, we believe that curiosity
is the best way to express our commitment to the health of
Canadians. Looking beyond the obvious and solving problems
in innovative ways drives the researchers we support and our
scientists toward the discovery of new and better treatments
for medical conditions and diseases.
The Globe and Mail's Report on Business Magazine and Hewitt
Associates recently ranked AstraZeneca as one of the top 50
Canadian employers. Most of the 1,450 Canadian employees work
at the Mississauga, Ontario, head office which includes manufacturing,
clinical research, sales and marketing, administration and
distribution, while over 100 scientists work at a state-of-the-art
pre-clinical pain research centre in Montréal.
