Value through Innovation

Our corporate vision - "Value through Innovation": The objectives and beliefs of Boehringer Ingelheim can be summed up in a single phrase: Value through Innovation. This vision has helped us to build on our strengths and make the most of our distinctive character. In a competitive and fast-changing world, the value of products, services and companies is constantly changing. Real customer value today can only be created by constantly developing new solutions and doing what we already do better.

Lead & Learn: The present phase in our evolution is Lead & Learn. Since 2004, it outlines ways in which Boehringer Ingelheim realises and delivers Value through Innovation. As our corporate culture, Lead & Learn is about all the people at Boehringer Ingelheim and how they work together.

Our vision for the corporate culture: Lead & Learn superseded the concept of Vision & Leadership that was established in 1993 by the Shareholders and the Board of Managing Directors of the Boehringer Ingelheim corporation. The Vision, created for Boehringer Ingelheim worldwide, was built around the corporate vision of Value through Innovation. Since then, our corporate culture always was guided by this vision.
