Our Commitment

At Chiesi, we're dedicated to being a force for good and creating a sustainable future. Since 2019, Chiesi is the world’s largest biopharmaceutical group to be certified as a Benefit Corporation (B Corp), meaning that its sustainability efforts are measured and assessed by the most ambitious global standards. The company aims at becoming net-zero by 2035.

As a B Corp in the biopharmaceutical industry, Chiesi is counted among businesses that are leading a global movement for an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy. It is an achievement to be proud of, and yet one that feels natural: caring for others lies at the root of health science and has always been at the heart of our work.

What is Benefit Corporation?

Benefit Corporations (B Corps) are companies that balance profit and purpose, meeting the highest standards of social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability. The B Corp movement includes over 5,000 companies in more than 80 countries, with a shared goal to use business as a force for good. Becoming a B Corp requires achieving a minimum score on the B Impact Assessment, a rigorous assessment of the company’s impact on its workers, customers, community, and environment, and publishing a yearly Impact Report for transparency.
