Sandoz Global

22/12/2025

As we come to the end of 2025, we’re recapping key milestones that shaped the year for Sandoz. ✨

🔬 We scaled our R&D and manufacturing by acquiring Just-Evotec Biologics' development and manufacturing facilities in Toulouse, and breaking ground on expanded biosimilars manufacturing capacity in Slovenia.

📢 We also brought key conversations to the global stage, hosting the first ‘Talking Biosimilars’ event at the World Health Summit, bringing leaders together to explore how we can accelerate access to biosimilar medicines.

💙 Our commitment to patients and the planet remained strong. We continued championing the community and advanced our decarbonization journey with a 10-year Power Purchase Agreement with Elawan Energy, enabling us to meet almost 90% of our current electricity demand in Europe with new-build solar power.

Our people and culture were central to our success, together we:

👉 Launched OurShare, a global all-employee share program
👉 Engaged future healthcare leaders at One Young World – Munich 2025
👉 Were recognized by Stonewall as a Top Global Employer for LGBTQI+ inclusion 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️️‍🌈

Looking ahead to 2026, we will be celebrating three anniversaries that define who we are: 140 years of heritage, 80 years of antibiotics and 20 years of biosimilars.

Wishing everyone happy holidays and a wonderful New Year!

Today is International Day of Persons with Disabilities, a moment to reaffirm our commitment to disability inclusion at Sandoz.

With more than 1 billion people worldwide living with permanent, temporary, visible, or invisible disabilities, our focus goes beyond awareness.

We recognize that inclusion starts with empathy, shared language, and practical steps and when accessibility is prioritized, engagement and performance rise across our teams.

From integrating disability awareness into onboarding and leadership programs, to conducting accessibility audits and standardizing inclusive hiring practices. There are just some of the ways that we’re making inclusion part of how we work, lead, and connect every day, championed by our Communities of Belonging. 💙

For millions of patients, a sustainable, resilient supply chain isn’t just a priority—it’s essential. Sustainable production and distribution practices not only protect supply chains from disruption but also play a crucial role in keeping medicines accessible.

By adopting sustainable production and distribution practices and exploring innovative pricing approaches, we can help prevent medicine shortages and make sure patients get the treatments they need, when they need them.

Watch this video to learn the perspectives of some of the patient advocates from the Making Access Happen community on why accessible pricing and a stable supply of medicines impact everyone.
