Molecules to Mindset: How Sanofi’s Summer Science Tour is Transforming Employees into Scientific Advocates
This summer, Sanofi is bringing science directly to its employees through the Science Era Summer Tour. Spanning five sites across the United States, this tour makes science accessible and engaging for all employees, regardless of their role or background.
"Chasing the miracles of science to improve people’s lives" isn't just an aspiration; it's the foundation of our approach to building a scientifically-aware workforce. As Sanofi works toward its ambition of becoming the world's leading immunology company, understanding our innovations becomes crucial for every employee.
The Science Era Summer Tour represents a meaningful commitment to transform employees into knowledgeable advocates of Sanofi's mission by bridging the gap between scientific innovation and everyday understanding.
Each event brought its own unique approach to reflect the employees that work at each site which ranges from offices and labs to manufacturing facilities. From our pipeline to our people and patients, each event was an incredible day of fun, scientific discovery and cross-team collaboration. The energy was palpable as employees dove deep into our innovative pipeline and strengthened connections across teams.
This event was an exhilarating experience. It really embodies who we are as One Sanofi. People from various areas, whether research, manufacturing, or corporate functions, all coming together towards this one common purpose.
