Eli Lilly is increasing its focus on China by planning a $3 billion investment over the next decade, especially targeting its obesity drug Mounjaro, recently added to China's health insurance reimbursement list. This move aims to grow its presence in a market that currently contributes less than 3% of its revenue.
