Our company
We pioneer breakthroughs in healthcare.
For everyone. Everywhere. Sustainably.
Our purpose
When our health is at risk, we rely on physicians to make the best possible decisions – from quick, early diagnoses to the most effective treatments and follow-ups. By constantly bringing breakthrough innovations to market, we help healthcare professionals to deliver high-quality care, leading to the best possible outcome for patients.
Our portfolio of products, services, and solutions is at the center of clinical decision-making and treatment pathways. Patient-centered innovation has been and always will be at the core of our company. We aspire to create better outcomes and experiences for patients no matter where they live or what they are facing.
We pioneer breakthroughs in healthcare. For everyone. Everywhere. Sustainably.
This is why we give our best every day, to improve the lives of patients and their families.

Our innovation leadership
We have unique strengths in patient twinning, precision therapy as well as digital, data, and AI that set us apart and enable us to actively shape the transformation of healthcare:
We will continue to build on these strengths to help overcome the world’s most threatening diseases: cancer, cardiovascular and neurovascular diseases, improving the quality of outcomes, and enabling access to care.
Tackling a global challenge
Global business, local care
What all healthcare systems have in common is their demand for high-value care – providing better outcomes with fewer resources. And while medtech is a global business, healthcare is inherently local.
We are currently present in more than 70 countries around the globe, making sure we are close to our customers. Our products, solutions, and services are customized to meet local market needs, benefiting from an unmatched global expertise.
Our innovation legacy
Built on a history of innovation we are a global player with a strong engineering heritage. Just one year after X-rays were discovered by Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen in 1895, we created our company’s first medical X-ray device.
Our archives still hold a letter from Roentgen dating back to 1896 praising the quality of tubes provided by Siemens.

Our culture
A culture of inclusivity
Our responsibility
An inclusive culture is a pre-requisite if we aspire to serve the eight billion people on our planet. As a diverse organization, we can better relate to the people – whether customers or patients – their communities and the specific challenges they face. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are therefore important aspects of our wider responsibilities.
Contributing to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals is a priority of our business strategy and is continuously enabled by our unique culture. We are a member of the UN Global Compact, our emissions reduction targets are approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as consistent with levels required to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement.
Our sustainability strategy is built on three pillars. We commit to improving healthcare access for all, limiting our environmental impact as we pioneer breakthroughs, and engaging our diverse Healthineers to achieve this impact on a global scale. We pioneer breakthroughs in healthcare. For everyone. Everywhere. Sustainably.
What is the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi)?
Our management
As the company's top management body, the members of the Managing Board, Bernd Montag (CEO), Jochen Schmitz (CFO), Darleen Caron (CHRO), and Elisabeth Staudinger (MBM) are committed to serving the interests of Siemens Healthineers and achieving sustainable growth in company value.
A publicly listed company
To secure the financial strength and entrepreneurial flexibility needed to continue pioneering breakthroughs in healthcare, Siemens spun off its medtech business in 2016 and Siemens Healthineers was born. In 2018, we successfully went public on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and in 2021 we were promoted to the DAX, Germany’s most important stock market index.
What's in a name?
Our purpose is to drive innovation to help humans live healthier and longer, and our mission is to enable healthcare providers worldwide increase value. These goals are expressed in our company name.
We chose a name that makes us stand out – one that, above all else, reflects the people who work here; people who pioneer and engineer in healthcare.
Our strategy
With our joint purpose, values, and unique strengths, we are taking the next step in the evolution of our company, serving even more customers and patients, and setting ourselves even more ambitious targets. In recent years, we have been growing into adjacent markets with the acquisitions of ECG Management Consultants, Corindus and the transformative combination of Siemens Healthineers and Varian. During our New Ambition phase, we will focus on these strategic priorities:
- Our ambition is to leverage our strong core in imaging and robotics to expand our relevance in cardiovascular and neurovascular care. And building on our oncology leadership by expanding along the diagnostic and therapeutic disease pathway.
- Our ambition is to enable healthcare providers to better serve more patients by augmenting and automating manual workflows.
Our ambition is to become a trusted partner to healthcare systems and patients by addressing the most pressing needs and enable healthcare for everyone, everywhere.
Combining the strength of our people, knowledge, and portfolio, we passionately pursue our single and unifying purpose: We pioneer breakthroughs in healthcare. For everyone. Everywhere. Sustainably.
