Our commitment to a sustainable future

Prescient’s Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Program

Our ESG approach is grounded in the core values that have always guided our mission: to help pharmaceutical companies develop, launch and market medicines that expand treatment options, optimize patient outcomes and deliver high levels of return.

Our ESG Goals

Our ESG goals are aligned to the UN's Sustainable Development Goals, with our framework aligned to those goals most appropriate for our industry and scale.

Prescient is proud to be a signatory to the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC)

We remain steadfast in our commitment to delivering positive societal and environmental outcomes. By embedding the UNGC’s Ten Principles for responsible business practices across our operations, we hope to continue using our scale, knowledge and skills to make a difference for all of our stakeholders. We value our participation and look forward to continuing to work together to ensure we are a force for good in society.
