Belén Garijo: Our annual Merck Awards are here again

Belén Garijo shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Our annual Merck Awards are here again to bring our attention to the extraordinary talent, dedication, and innovation we have across Merck Group.

Each year, we honor those who pushed the boundaries of excellence on initiatives that truly matter to our future. Last night, we recognized outstanding teams for their contributions across key areas: innovation, fostering a culture of safety, and championing employee well-being.

A special congratulations to the winners of the CEO Award—our Animal Welfare teams—whose efforts to immediately improve animal welfare and reduce the need for animal testing have such a profound impact. Congratulations to all the winners! Your dedication, passion, and commitment inspire us all.”
