Our strategy.

Merck has a clear objective: profitable growth. This is based on a distinct, fundamental strategy that can be summed up in three words: Sustain. Change. Grow. It’s a strategy that suits both our culture and our competencies. It strikes the right balance between the old and the new, between innovation and tradition, between Pharmaceuticals and Chemicals, gives us the best possible preconditions for growth and makes it possible to fully unlock the entrepreneurial potential inside Merck. It gives our workforce of nearly 31,000 employees around the world orientation for their daily work. We enable them to share in the company’s success and, thus, also in the execution risk. By tradition, we will remain curious and courageous – and continue to seize many new opportunities in the future.
