One Unifying Voice
Now is the time to speak up.
At MaxCyte, we denounce racism, inequality, violence, coercion and discrimination in all forms.
We are committed to fostering workplace development, diversity, and inclusion (WDDI) within our own organization and across the biotechnology industry. We are dedicated to develop a diverse and talented global workforce, and understand the value that diversity contributes to the culture and success of any business. Diverse teams enhance collaboration, are more accepting of differences, and are also more effective in the global environment in which we operate, enabling the promise of next-generation cell and gene-editing therapies around the globe.
To that end, we affirmatively support the WDDI Principles adopted by the Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO), and pledge to do our part to foster diversity and inclusion among our employees, customers, patients and the communities where we operate.
We acknowledge as a company that we must hold true to our values and treat each other with acceptance, care and respect — and we must hold one another accountable. We must speak up when we see examples of racism, discrimination, and violence — and we must help break down barriers.
Now is the time to speak up. Now is the time to engage.
