Tomorrow’s innovators - Bristol Myers Squibb
Shaping the future success of BMS
Ushering in the next generation of diverse and talented leaders.
Bristol Myers Squibb is committed to advancing equity in health care and knows the process of repairing institutional disparities requires action. For us to better understand, reach and serve diverse patient populations, our workforce must better reflect the experiences, perspectives and background of those diverse communities – and we’re committed to making sure it does.
From that pledge comes Tomorrow’s Innovators.
Tomorrow's Innovators is an initiative that builds a sustainable bridge for diverse talent from Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) to the biopharma industry. Its conception is another step toward creating an equitable future for Black talent in healthcare.
Through collaboration with the HBCUs, Tomorrow’s Innovators will co-create custom biopharma programming, develop a 2-way leadership exchange program for collaboration and research purposes, increase HBCU talent recruitment, and attract executive-level Black talent. Together, we’ll build the incubator for the industry’s future leaders to create a more diverse and equitable future in healthcare.
