History and Founding of AbbVie Inc.
AbbVie Inc. was founded in 2013 as a strategic spin-off from Abbott Laboratories, a company with more than a century of experience in the pharmaceutical sector.
The separation was designed to allow AbbVie to focus exclusively on innovative specialty pharmaceuticals, while Abbott continued operating in healthcare and nutrition products.
In its early years, AbbVie faced the challenge of establishing itself as an independent entity, but quickly rose to global prominence, driven by the continued success of Humira, which became one of the best-selling pharmaceutical products in the world.
Since its founding, AbbVie has expanded globally, investing heavily in innovation and strategic acquisitions to diversify its product pipeline.
One of the company’s most notable acquisitions occurred in 2020, with the purchase of Allergan, significantly enhancing AbbVie’s position in the aesthetics and neurology sectors. The acquisition brought iconic brands like Botox into AbbVie’s portfolio.
In recent years, the company has focused on diversifying its revenue streams, with investments in biotechnology, targeted therapies, and expanding its footprint in oncology and neuroscience.
Between 2020 and 2024, AbbVie increased efforts to address patent expiration challenges by advancing new therapeutic areas and forming strategic partnerships to maintain its competitive edge in the global biopharma market.
Today, AbbVie continues to invest in R&D, aiming to deliver innovative treatments for complex conditions, while reinforcing its position as one of the most prominent companies in the global biopharmaceutical industry.
