How the Global Initiative on Health and the Economy Can Help Us Invest in Healthy Societies
By Dominic Caruso, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Johnson & Johnson
As a company whose mission it is to help billions of people around the world live longer, healthier and happier lives, we have long understood the tremendous impact that better health can have on an individual’s life—enabling greater contributions to their family and their work.
But research has also shown the much broader impact that better health can have on global societies, which is why I met recently with a number of stakeholders from across business, government and academic institutions in Washington, D.C., to help launch The Global Initiative on Health and the Economy, a U.S. Chamber of Commerce initiative co-founded by Johnson & Johnson.
As the world’s largest healthcare company, we are proud to be a leader in this initiative to champion good health and good healthcare policies that are vital to advancing economic growth and prosperity.
