ESG Performance

We're continuing to successfully deliver against our ESG commitments, with examples including:

Advancing clinical trials investigating a twice-yearly injectable to prevent HIV transmission.
Expanding our efforts to increase access and remove barriers to care. Our voluntary licensing programs provided access to HIV treatments based on Gilead’s innovation to more than 20 million people in low- and middle-income countries. We ranked No. 1 among philanthropic funders of HIV-related programs by Funders Concerned About AIDS, and we donated nearly $300 million in 2023 to multiple programs and partner efforts aligned with our mission.

Further reducing the median delivery time for our industry-leading CAR T-cell therapy. Every day matters for patients receiving this treatment as their disease can progress rapidly.
Making significant progress toward ambitious climate targets, which include a commitment to a 46% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and to achieve water neutrality in water-stressed regions by 2030.
