Executive Summary
Sanofi is not a colonial company, said CEO Christopher Viehbacher at a media briefing in Mumbai on 30 September 2013. Addressing both the technology transfer agenda and Indian sensitivities to multinationals that appear to act in an imperialist fashion, it is not a firm that simply discovers and produces medicines in its home country and essentially looks for export markets, said Mr Viehbacher.
