Almost 90 years after the Otsuka group started its business in Tokushima, Japan, Otsuka Holdings Co., Ltd was listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange in 2010. This was said to be one of the biggest stock flotations ever undertaken in the Japanese pharmaceutical sector at the time. This was a major milestone for our company! 🌟 The Otsuka group currently employs around 34,400 people globally, with more than half of these people based outside of Japan. Globally, we continue to foster a diverse and inclusive culture, providing ongoing opportunities for us to think differently, creatively, and curiously to seek solutions to challenges in healthcare.

At Otsuka Europe, we are proud of the ongoing efforts we make in investing in the next generation of talent. Our internship programme offers students invaluable experiences across various business areas, equipping them with the skills needed for a successful career. 🌟 This July, we proudly welcomed 11 new interns to Otsuka UK and Otsuka Europe for their ‘year in industry’, as part of their university programmes. The interns kicked off their journey with our 'Intern Induction' event, where they immersed themselves in Otsuka’s values and explored the exciting developmental opportunities available to them during their placement. The day concluded with a team-building activity at ‘Escape Rooms – Windsor’, providing them the time to foster team work and collaborate with their peers. 🤝 We are thrilled to support these young individuals as they embark on their careers, helping them to build on their confidence, skills, and knowledge for future success.

Can finance be innovative, collaborative and fun? The answer here at Otsuka is a resounding YES! Earlier this year, the Otsuka Italy team hosted our 3rd Annual European Finance Team Day in Milan, where we also introduced the new EU Finance Award. Today, we want to shine a special spotlight on our inaugural winner for 2024, Montse Morales! 🎉 Montse was recognised for her positive and warm attitude alongside her active role within the European Finance team. At Otsuka Europe, we are proud to be able to celebrate our people, like Montse, as they live the Otsuka values and work creatively and curiously to overcome challenges collaboratively. Congratulations to Montse and thank you to all those who attended the day and contributed to our insightful discussions! Learn more about life at Otsuka here 👉 https://lnkd.in/d-v3KTVD

Last week, we celebrated summer with our fourth annual ‘Back Together’ summer event ☀️ Our ‘Back Together’ events offer teams a chance to take a break from the traditional work day and spend some much-deserved time together. This year was extra special as it marked 50 years of Otsuka Europe – a fantastic milestone and a great opportunity to not only reflect on our amazing journey so far but to look forward to what’s to come. Here's how we celebrated... 🏫 Originally an old boys' school, we met at the Beaumont Estate – the perfect venue for our ‘Back to School’ theme which transported us back to 1974. We welcomed a special guest ‘headmistress’ to ensure we were embodying our Otsuka values of integrity, compassion, collaboration, excellence and creativity. 🎪 We held our very own Fresher’s Fayre to showcase the key roles our teams play in making Otsuka Europe a strong and vibrant work environment. 🏆 Our teams took part in some healthy competition as 'year groups' competed in a series of classic sports day activities. 🎁 We each participated in challenges as part of our ‘Give Back Day’ where we were able to earn donations for our corporate charity, Rosie’s Rainbow Fund. 🎒 We gave a warm welcome to our 11 new 2024/2025 interns, who have joined different areas for their ‘year in industry’ as part of their university programmes. We are incredibly grateful to have opportunities like these to spend time together, foster community spirit and celebrate our successes as one. We can’t wait to see what the second half of 2024 has in store!

As part of our Uniquely Otsuka series, we would like to cast our spotlight on Otsuka’s Museum of Art - the world’s first and only ceramic art museum! 🎨 Built in 1998, to celebrate Otsuka’s 75th anniversary, this innovative museum houses over 1,000 full-size ceramic reproductions of major works of art, including, Monet’s Nympheas, Van Gogh’s Sunflowers and Picasso’s Guernica. This venue also houses the original size reproduction of the ceiling and wall painting by Michelangelo in the Sistine Chapel. The concept for this museum was developed by the Otsuka family who were keen to give back to the people of Tokushima and give local people the opportunity to see some of the most iconic pieces of global artwork. Most of the displayed collection has been created using a special manufacturing technique, ensuring that the colours and shapes will remain unchanged for at least 2,000 years. This museum has the largest exhibition space in Japan, with a total floor space of 29,412 square metres (316,588 square feet) and we are delighted for it to be enjoyed by both present and future generations. We hope that you will be able to visit one day. https://lnkd.in/ebqTQfyq

As part of our forward-looking outlook at Otsuka Europe, we want to invest in our future generation. With this in mind, we offer an internship programme, which provides invaluable experience for students to gain real-world skills in specific business areas. Last June we welcomed a few interns to our Communications, Ethics and Compliance, Finance, Human Resources, Marketing and Management, and Pipeline and Supply Chain teams and now sadly it is time to say thank you and farewell as they go back to their various universities to complete their studies. This group recently had the opportunity to give presentations to senior members of our organisation based on the topic ‘My Learnings and Achievements’, and it was great to hear how they have developed over their 12 months with us! They also had the chance to talk to our President and CEO, Andy Hodge, to hear about his career journey and the advice he had for those starting out in the pharmaceutical industry. We are incredibly proud to be able to welcome young people into the pharmaceutical world, and help them build on the confidence, skills, and knowledge they need to continue their journey.

In the next instalment of our Uniquely Otsuka series, we’re sharing how Otsuka employees are encouraged to think differently and be both creative and curious. At our Tokushima office in Japan, our balanced bent cedar tree, giant tomato tree and floating stone monuments remind us to always try to think beyond the conventional. By nurturing the creative potential of our people, we encourage them to push the boundaries of their knowledge and to persevere with their ideas. Rather than simply following industry trends, we aim to tackle some of the world’s unresolved health challenges through our mindset. Supporting our people to be trendsetters allows them to take on challenges and discover out-of-the-box solutions to global health issues. You can learn more about our culture and philosophy on our website here 👉 https://lnkd.in/eTwJBC_V
