Since 1858, medicines made by Bristol-Myers Squibb have helped millions of patients around the world fight serious diseases such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes, HIV/AIDS, chronic hepatitis B, rheumatoid arthritis and various psychiatric disorders.
From those early days, the company has been developing our offering to better meet the needs of patients. By combining the best elements of a leading-edge biotech company with the resources of a major pharmaceutical company, BMS is transforming into a new kind of enterprise: a next-generation BioPharma leader.
At the heart of this BioPharma strategy are the medicines that give meaningful hope to patients and physicians and bring value to its shareholders and customers. Since 2002, BMS introduced eight new products for the treatment of numerous serious diseases.
As well as all these products now on the market, scores of additional investigational medicines are advancing through the company’s pharmaceutical development pipeline. In fact, Bristol-Myers Squibb is recognised as having one of the most productive pipelines in the industry.
Over the years, Bristol-Myers Squibb and its employees have received awards and recognition. We have been listed as one of the best companies to work for by The Sunday Times. We have also been acknowledged as an industry leader in environment, health and safety management.
Finally, our philanthropic programmes have given new hope to some of the world’s most vulnerable citizens.
