Abbott

At Abbott, sustainability starts with our purpose — helping people lead fuller lives through better health. That’s how Abbott can make the biggest impact on people’s lives and deliver sustainable, responsible business growth in the years to come.

Our 2022 Global Sustainability Report highlights the meaningful progress we’ve made toward achieving our 2030 Sustainability Plan and demonstrates how we’re working to improve the lives of 3 billion people each year by the decade’s end.

A key strategy we’re using to reach this goal is consciously innovating for access and affordability to make our future products and technologies available to more people around the world. The Design Principles we’re integrating into our R&D processes will help us evolve the way we bring our technologies to the people who need them.

Three examples of how we’ve made our health technology more accessible, personal and convenient to more people include delivering our next-generation continuous glucose monitoring system FreeStyle Libre 3, introducing an improved version of the NeuroSphere MyPath digital health app, and launching our Panbio HIV Self-Test in 14 countries.

In addition to our progress in innovating for access and affordability, the report highlights the ways in which we’re building the diverse, innovative workforce of tomorrow, responsibly connecting data, technology and care, creating a resilient, diverse and responsible supply chain, and protecting a healthy environment.

Bacardi continues to bring Shake Your Future – a free, professional bartender training program for unemployed young adults – to more people. Most recently, Bacardi partnered with the Bermuda Government’s Department of Workforce Development, to bring the program to Bermuda which is home to the global headquarters of the family-owned spirits company. Now, after undergoing rigorous training at the prestigious European Bartending School in London, followed by workshops on personal branding and marketing, participants of the transformative program have returned to Bermuda to embark on work placement opportunities with local bars and restaurants.

Originally created by Bacardi in 2018, Shake Your Future has since launched in Italy, France, India, South Africa, and other markets. Globally, an impressive 80% of graduates have secured successful careers in the hospitality industry. By providing participants with valuable skills, hands-on experience, and industry connections, Shake Your Future is helping to equip a new generation of hospitality professionals with the tools they need to succeed in this dynamic industry.
