Strategic consideration of diversity not only makes QIAGEN a better place to work. We also consider it to be a key success factor on the path to achieving our mission and goals.

Since the launch of our strategic initiative on gender diversity in 2018, the participation of women in leadership roles has increased from 28% in 2018 to 36% in 2023.
