MALVERN, PA — YPrime has announced its formal commitment to the United Nations (UN) Global Compact, a global initiative promoting universal principles on human rights, labor, the environment, and anti-corruption. With this move, YPrime joins a global network of companies dedicated to sustainable and ethical business practices.
According to YPrime CEO Jim Corrigan, this decision aligns with the company’s mission to accelerate the delivery of life-changing therapies in a responsible and inclusive manner. “By joining the UN Global Compact, we are pledging to integrate sustainable and ethical practices into every aspect of our operations,” Corrigan said. “Our mission has always been to accelerate the delivery of life-changing therapies to patients, and this initiative extends naturally to ensuring we do so in a way that respects human rights, promotes fair labor practices, protects our environment, and upholds the highest standards of business integrity.”
Aligning Business Practices With Global Principles
The Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact, which focus on advancing human rights, environmental stewardship, and ethical business practices, closely mirror YPrime’s organizational values. Corrigan emphasized the company’s belief in using technology as a force for good, particularly in clinical research.
“At YPrime, we believe that technology can be a powerful force for positive change in clinical research,” he said. “This partnership with the UN strengthens our drive to develop solutions that not only advance clinical research but do so in a way that benefits society as a whole, particularly in making clinical trials more accessible and inclusive for all populations.”
A Broader Commitment to Sustainability
By joining the UN Global Compact, YPrime underscores its broader commitment to sustainability, including efforts to reduce environmental impact and enhance social responsibility. The company’s pledge builds on its longstanding culture of putting patients first by expanding clinical trial access to diverse communities.
YPrime plans to integrate the UN Global Compact’s principles into its business strategy, operations, and organizational culture. This step reinforces the company’s dedication to creating solutions that not only accelerate the pace of clinical research but do so in a way that positively impacts people, communities, and the planet.
“Our daily work directly affects patients and caregivers,” Corrigan added. “Every technology solution and every service delivery has the potential to change someone’s life. This human-centric approach naturally extends to the broader principles of sustainability and social responsibility championed by the UN Global Compact.”
This partnership represents a pivotal step in YPrime’s ongoing sustainability efforts and its commitment to advancing clinical research while contributing to a fairer, more inclusive world.
