We Are Elanco

Our people advocate for our customers and uphold our core Elanco values, vision, promise, and purpose-driven culture.

Food and companionship have never been more critical for the wellbeing of people than today. At Elanco we have a long history of advancing and advocating for these causes together with our customers. What energizes me every day is the passion, the entrepreneurial mindset, and the culture of ownership and collaboration in our teams that keeps us innovating and delivering value to our customers.

— Philip Huggenberger – General Manager, Japan and Korea

Leaders need to be able to inspire and enable. They create an environment where people can be at their best and where teams feel confident to deliver, irrespective of what national or cultural contexts they operate within. Together with my Elanco colleagues across 13 countries in the Asian region, I believe we can achieve some great things together – for animals, for our customers and for society.

— Larbi van Lier – Senior Vice President, Asia
