About GSK UAE

GSK is a British biopharmaceutical company headquartered in London. It operates in the UAE and the wider Gulf, supplying vaccines and medicines to hospitals, pharmacies and health systems.

The company is particularly known for vaccines, with a portfolio that includes vaccines for diseases such as shingles, meningitis and other infections. It also develops specialty medicines in areas such as respiratory diseases, HIV and oncology.

In 2022, GSK separated its consumer health business, which owned brands like toothpaste and pain relief products, into a new company called Haleon, allowing GSK to focus on medicines and vaccines.

In the UAE, pharmaceutical companies work with health authorities on registration, immunisation programmes and access to new treatments.

Vaccination programmes are an important part of public health in the UAE, covering childhood immunisations and adult vaccines.

Global pharmaceutical companies typically manage Gulf operations from regional offices in Dubai or Riyadh, with teams for medical affairs, regulatory work and commercial activities.

GSK is a British company rather than a UAE startup, and Startups UAE lists its UAE operations among the country's pharmaceutical companies.
