September 10, 2024
One of Alnylam's core values is that we are "Fiercely Innovative" which to us means that we aspire to drive transformational new discoveries from concept to cure through a culture that expects and empowers innovation from across the company. To achieve this, over our two decades as a company, we've continued to focus on nurturing a workplace environment that crackles with creativity and collaboration.
The passion to innovate and "challenge accepted" mantra that permeates our labs, offices and colleague interactions is a critical part of our success as a business, our track record of delivering innovative therapies to patients and our frequent recognition as a best place to work. To be recognized by Fast Company as a Best Workplace for Innovators for the fourth year in a row is appreciated recognition that we've built something truly special here!
We ranked #8 out of 100 companies on this year's list and are the highest ranked life sciences company.
We are not satisfied by incremental progress and instead pursue breakthroughs that we believe will truly transform lives and the practice of medicine. We've done this by hiring and retaining the best people in every function and at every level, and they continue to show up every day with a “challenge accepted” mindset, determined to make a difference for patients. This latest recognition from Fast Company as a workplace where innovators thrive is wonderful validation of the culture of innovation and excellence that all of us at Alnylam have worked so hard to build." – Kevin Fitzgerald, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer at Alnylam
In addition to being named a Best Workplace for Innovators four years in a row, we're incredibly proud to have been recognized as one of Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies in both 2023 and 2019.
Fast Company's annual list of Best Workplaces for Innovators list recognizes companies from around the world across industries including Pharmaceuticals, Technology, Fintech, Engineering, Manufacturing and more. From Fast Company: "Our sixth annual Best Workplaces for Innovators list recognizes more than 150 companies that understand vitally important breakthroughs can occur on the loading dock, not just in a corner office."
