Abstract

At Takeda, the patients we serve — and achieving outcomes for them and their health — have been at the heart of everything we do for more than 240 years. We believe our values, making decisions based on Patient – Trust – Reputation – Business, in that order, sets us apart.

Takeda has transformed into a global, science-driven, digital biopharmaceutical company and has accelerated our competitiveness in past several years. Our global footprint, robust financial position, balanced portfolio, and diverse talent gives us the scale needed to bring innovative medicines to patients across the world. Through our R&D transformation, we clarified our focus on well-defined therapeutic areas, diversified our modalities beyond small molecules, and enhanced internal research capabilities and external collaborations which enabled us to make a more meaningful impact on patients and society.

Today, with health care systems increasingly under strain as life expectancies rise, populations age and innovative treatment options expand, our patient-centered and outcomes-focused approach is more relevant than ever. We believe that health care systems need to urgently move toward value-based health care, one that rewards outcome and care quality – the true purpose of any healthcare system. That is why our strategy is centered on the discovery and development of innovative and life-transforming medicines that have the potential to be best-in-class or first-in-class. At the same time, we are building resilience against external risks and making bold investments in data, technology, and AI to upskill our people and drive value creation.

Our culture encourages and appreciates our differences, and we believe the company continues to thrive because of them. We embrace our differences, and these diverse perspectives reflect the perspectives of the patients who rely on the treatments we develop. We ensure that employees, regardless of gender, age, nationality can advance their careers and fully demonstrate their capabilities. At Takeda, we are committed to create an exceptional experience for our people.
