Our Impact Ambitions
Our 2030 Impact Ambitions mark a step-up from our 2025 Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) goals commitments, integral to our global company strategy and our vision to deliver better care for more people, supporting sustainable long-term value creation. They include ambitious and measurable goals and detailed plans of action, with a focus on:
- Improve health and well-being: We remain committed to our stated ambition to improve the lives of 2.5 billion people per year, including 400 million lives in medically underserved communities. We aspire to be the best place to work, and aim to improve working conditions in the supply chain.
- Reduce impact on the environment: We are focused on reducing our absolute impact on climate, materials use and nature across the value chain, aligned with international science-based frameworks, towards achieving net-zero emissions by 2045.
- Governance & enablers: Our governance framework is aimed at creating sustainable long-term value for our stakeholders in compliance with sustainability regulations. We embed our Impact Ambitions in design, business models, AI, operations. We apply EcoDesign in our innovation process and new product introductions.
