Sustainability Committee

The Board of Directors is ultimately responsible for the company’s sustainability performance. The CEO reports on the progress of the company’s sustainability work at every Board meeting.

BioGaia’s Sustainability Committee facilitates the execution of the sustainability agenda and plays a key role in shaping our sustainability strategy and ensuring operational adherence to established objectives. The Sustainability Committee is headed by BioGaia’s Sustainability Director and the Chief Legal Officer and includes representatives from various parts of the organisation, including one Board member, the CFO, and the CEO. This composition ensures that sustainability considerations are integrated into BioGaia’s strategic decision-making processes. The Committee convenes four times per year to deliberate on matters such as strategic goals, progress tracking, and regulatory developments.
