ABOUT US Our purpose, culture and values A strong culture and purpose Our purpose is to invest to extend and enhance human life. What our purpose means to our business In 2020 we worked together as a team to formally articulate the purpose of our business. Whilst what motivated us as a team had always been clear – to deliver transformational treatments to patients – we had not taken the opportunity to date to define this in a formal statement behind which we could all align on a go forward basis. Our culture and values We have a strong, entrepreneurial culture, where everyone takes personal ownership for delivering Syncona’s purpose. Our culture is underpinned by our values. Our values Our values are at the heart of all that we do as we seek to deliver Syncona’s mission for all of our stakeholders Excellence We continually strive for the best outcome for all of Syncona’s stakeholders We have high expectations of ourselves and each-other; we act with integrity We work with the best people to deliver our goals Entrepreneurial We actively engage with the external world and work to create its future We are curious and creative to bring about the change we seek to make We take risks in a competitive world and face them with bravery, determination and urgency Teamwork We seek to give and receive constructive feedback We are collaborative and transparent, valuing our diverse talents and perspectives We admit our mistakes and perpetually seek to improve Leadership We see what needs to be done and take responsibility for doing it We take personal ownership for delivering Syncona’s mission We think independently; we are not bound by precedent We are trusted and empowered to progress our own development We have drive, resilience and persistence Data driven We are relentless in searching out all of the data We ensure our hypotheses and decisions are firmly grounded in the data We are intellectually honest and provide open and constructive challenge When we build successful companies, it benefits all our stakeholders: For our shareholders it means generating attractive and sustainable returns. For patients it means providing life enhancing transformational treatments. For our employees and those of our companies, it means creating an environment where everyone can contribute and flourish and where people feel their work provides a useful social contribution. For society and the communities, we work in, it means supporting UK and European life science by building sustainable life science businesses; and, through The Syncona Foundation, supporting related charitable organisations to make a positive difference. For everyone it means we can repeat what we do, and found, build and fund even more companies to expand our impact.
