Corporate Social Responsibility

▸ About Us ▸ Corporate Social Responsibility

Syngene is committed to making a positive impact through its corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives. The company believes in giving back to society and has taken various steps to promote education and healthcare in underprivileged communities. Syngene’s CSR programs aim to support women, children, and communities in need, fostering a sustainable and inclusive society.

One of Syngene’s major CSR initiatives is the scholarship and mentoring program for women in partnership with the Biocon Foundation. The program seeks to empower women from low-income backgrounds to pursue Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education and build successful careers. Syngene has also partnered with Research & Innovation Circle of Hyderabad (RICH) to expand the program’s reach to women from smaller cities, providing them with the necessary skills and resources to succeed in the workforce.

Syngene also supports government schools in Bangalore and the Chikkaballapur region by sponsoring mobile science labs. This initiative aims to promote science education and equip students with practical knowledge. Additionally, the company sponsors E-Laj clinics in remote areas of Karnataka to provide underserved communities access to healthcare and technology.

Syngene’s CSR efforts are a testament to the company’s commitment to promoting social welfare and sustainability. Through its various initiatives, Syngene empowers individuals and communities, fosters positive change, and makes a difference in the world.

Vision

To strive towards developing and sustaining healthy and empowered communities by improving the quality of life.

Mission

To support innovative solutions for major developmental issues in order to achieve sustainable social and environmental impact.

Areas of intervention

With the support of needs-based assessment studies and in-depth community engagement, we have identified the following focus areas:

Healthcare

Syngene is improving the public healthcare system by driving innovation, operational efficiency and productivity. By setting up eLAJ Smart Clinics, a dedicated service in the form of Specialist Clinics, focusing on health promotion and prevention of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) and their modifiable risk factors and more recently to partner with the government to manage COVID-19….

Education

Education is a powerful tool to drive change in communities. Our aim is to invest in initiatives that deliver high-quality, inclusive education and promote learning opportunities for all, focusing on underserved youth in rural areas.

Environmental conservation

Concern about the environment is common to all communities to allow future generations to live in safe, healthy and environmentally stable surroundings.

Rural development

Syngene undertakes a series of measures to address the needs of education, health, civic infrastructure, housing, water and sanitation in rural Karnataka. Rural development projects have far-reaching positive impacts, and CSR-prompted initiatives can secure real and lasting benefits…..

Women and children safety

In collaboration with the Bangalore City Police, this program funded counselling and rehabilitation for women and children who need police support. The program offers medical assistance, legal aid, vocational training, educational support and short-stay and rehabilitation.

Nutrition

WHO has proposed a Global Action Plan (GAP) framework to attain Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) targets to end all forms of malnutrition by 2030. Our intervention has extended micronutrient supplements, including iron and folic acid tablets to reproductive age and pregnant women in line with the GAP. It promotes age-appropriate infant and young child feeding and care practices and sensitizes adolescent girls to nutrition and reproductive health.

COVID- 19 relief

It was not just our healthcare programs that persisted through lockdowns. In a bid to support the government infrastructure, Syngene committed a significant part of its CSR contribution towards setting up an ICMR-approved lab that would conduct RT-PCR tests for the Government of Karnataka. Approximately 3,57,000 RT-PCR tests have been completed for the Government of Karnataka. (This figure includes employees and their families tested)
