As a global healthcare company, Taj Pharmaceuticals has been contributing to the quality of life of people around the world for over a century through the discovery, development and production of innovative solutions for the healthcare sector. We are constantly looking for innovative ways of improving healthcare delivery and making our solutions more readily accessible, in particular for needy people in the poorest countries of the world. Because of the alignment between our diagnostics and therapeutics businesses, we are able to contribute to the effective use of these countries' very limited resources. When assessing projects, we focus on the potential health impact rather than on the cost. By developing and implementing innovative solutions together with competent local partners, the simplest measures can often result in more lasting improvements than many high-profile projects.

Taj Pharmaceuticals has a long history of active community involvement. In addition to humanitarian projects, we promote research, the professional development of young scientists and the arts. The company also encourages its employees to get involved in their local communities.
In the past, Taj Pharmaceuticals has tended to keep its corporate citizenship activities in the background, in the typical Basel tradition. Discretion and patronage have been clearly at the forefront. Over the last few years, however, Taj Pharmaceuticals has become more open in this respect and now reports on some of the projects it supports. Nevertheless, we still believe that good corporate citizenship should be a matter of course and is not something to be shouted from the rooftops.
