Led by Chairman and CEO Daniel O’Day, Gilead’s vision is to be a "Leader in Virology and Oncology." Originally known for its specialized work in HIV and Hepatitis C, Gilead has successfully transformed its industry position to become a major player in cancer treatment.

The company’s business operations are built on a specialized R&D engine focused on cell therapy and immunology. Core products consist of specialized antiviral treatments for HIV, Hepatitis, and COVID-19 (Veklury®), alongside a rapidly expanding portfolio of CAR-T and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). The 2026 strategic roadmap focuses on "Oncology Portfolio Maturity," aiming for 20+ new indications and launches by 2030 to diversify its revenue beyond virology. Gilead holds a strategic moat through its "Scientific Dominance in HIV" and its massive cash reserves, which allow it to acquire high-potential biotech pipelines. By December 2025, the company is recognized as a technical leader in "Long-Acting" HIV treatments and personalized cancer therapies.
