Sobi Culture At Sobi, we refuse to accept the status quo. This is because we have witnessed first‑hand the challenges facing those affected by rare diseases and have used this knowledge to shape our business to find new ways of helping them. As a specialized biopharmaceutical company, we are dedicated to rare diseases. We see this focus as a strength. By effectively turning our research into ground‑breaking treatments, we help make medicine more accessible and open up more possibilities for patients and more opportunities for those caring for them. This has been our approach since day one, but we know we can’t change the world of rare diseases on our own. Accomplishing this requires strong partnerships with patients, partners and stakeholders across the entire value chain. Together, we define how our business can create solutions that serve the needs of those affected by rare diseases while facilitating sustainable growth.
