Our commitment to the environment
Committed to implementing key sustainability practices across our operations
We continue to implement key sustainability practices across our operations and take steps to measure, manage and minimize our environmental impact where possible.
Reducing our operational footprint
We are focused on tracking our carbon footprint, mitigating our impact where we can and identifying ways to reduce our environmental impact.
Our partner network
We look for partners who value environmental sustainability. This is particularly important because we do not conduct biopharmaceutical research and development or manufacture or market biopharmaceutical products.
