Merck – Sustain. Change. Grow.

Pharmaceuticals and chemicals are important to people all over the world. Merck plays an active role in these sectors and has helped to shape them. Our success and corporate culture are founded on strong pillars, namely innovation and tradition. For generations, Merck has repeatedly proven its courage in taking the first steps while sustaining what has worked well in the past. In a world of constant change, it’s important to be able to rely on experience in things that really matter.

Merck and its employees support the principle of sustaining and changing in order to remain successful. In 2007, the acquisition of the biotech company Serono was successfully completed and the Generics business was divested. With these steps, Merck has created a wide range of new development opportunities. Merck is clearly focused on profitable growth – driven by innovations that prolong life and improve the quality of life of many people around the world.
