Sustainability

Our commitment to environmental sustainability is one of the foundational elements of our corporate culture. In order to continue serving patients, we have to grow in a manner that respects the environment, operate in a transparent and ethical manner, foster sustainable growth, and be a force for positive change around the world.

Our 2022 Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Report details our ESG goals, strategies, and progress and, equally important, our approach to working with a common purpose. In pursuit of our mission to discover, develop and deliver innovative medicines that help patients prevail over serious diseases, we are making meaningful progress in progressing our environmental, social and governance initiatives and health equity commitments.

 

Korab Zuka, Vice President Purpose/ESG, sits down with Giovanni Caforio, CEO Emeritus, to discuss the importance of ESG at BMS.

"I am immensely proud of the progress our teams have made toward achieving our ESG goals and am confident in the positive impact BMS will continue to have on our patients and the world."
Chris Boerner, PhD, Chief Executive Officer at Bristol Myers Squibb
