Sustaining our communities
We strongly believe in supporting the communities in which we operate. We encourage employee engagement and support many charities worldwide. Our goal is to be a vibrant and vital part of the communities in which we live and work.
Community involvement
We develop and produce of a line of linear accelerators that better suits the needs of people living and working in developing countries. These products are designed to enable advanced treatments at a lower entry point, extending access to advanced care globally.
We have also constructed key production facilities and training centers in China and India, bringing jobs and expertise to these fast-growing countries. Furthermore, we work closely with international bodies, such as the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) and the UICC (Union for International Cancer Control), to make advanced treatment systems more readily available in emerging countries.
Charity and sponsorships
We sponsor many major healthcare and cancer management research activities, and support various charity and patient care initiatives at a local level. Many of these initiatives can be viewed in our annual Sustainability Report.
