Introduction to Purpose led-Sustainability at Takeda

Our Purpose-led Sustainability Strategy

Building from Takeda’s strong heritage, our corporate philosophy brings greater focus to our purpose, vision, values and imperatives.

We create long-term value for all our stakeholders – we consider how our actions will impact the next decade, not just the next quarter. We strive to address unmet medical needs by delivering life-transforming or life-saving medicines and vaccines, and we believe this will translate into sustainable growth for the business. Our purpose is deliberately even broader than this, however. It encompasses the wider world, as well as a commitment to be environmentally responsible. Through our purpose-led sustainability approach, we create value for society by putting our core strengths and capabilities as a biopharmaceutical company to work to help solve key societal challenges.

This purpose-led and values-based approach drives all of our actions and decisions, and our commitments across our Patient, People and Planet imperatives underpinned by Data and Digital. Our approach is integrated into how we do business – throughout our entire value chain from research and development (R&D) to product distribution – taking into consideration how our work affects patients and people in the communities we serve, as well as the planet.
