Believe it or not: 3,036 employees from around the world joined the Olympus #dressinblue2024 internal fundraising campaign in March. 💙 Does that hashtag ring a bell? March is international colorectal cancer awareness month. This year, for the second time in a row, our employees raised awareness of this preventable disease and collected money by wearing blue clothes and sharing a picture of it. Thanks to their incredible participation, Olympus supports selected non-profit organizations across the globe. In EMEA, we are donating 4,570 euros to the initiative “patientenhilfe darmkrebs”, which aims to financially support colorectal cancer patients in need.

In Europe alone, around 14 million women are affected by #Endometriosis – yet statistically the average time between first occurrence of symptoms and the final diagnosis can take to up to 10 years. That’s why it is very important to raise awareness and knowledge about the disease – and why it was a great opportunity last week to hear about it from leading expert Dr. Bernd Holthaus, chief gynecologist at the St. Elisabeth Krankenhaus Damme. Dr. Holthaus joined us at our Olympus EMEA headquarters in Hamburg, where simultaneously the #GETUP2024 training course for upcoming professionals in gynecology took place, and provided employees on-site and via online streaming with enlightening medical insights into this condition.

It’s been a pleasure to be part of the “Visionaries: Champions of Industry” series by ITP Media Group! Hear from Ronald Boueri, Regional Managing Director of Olympus in Middle East and Africa, how our legacy guides us in creating value for a more healthcare-focused world. #Olympus #MEA #MedTech #VisionarySeries

What is your highlight in March? For us at Olympus, it is joining efforts in raising awareness about colorectal cancer (CRC): Once again in 2024, the #dressinblue campaign connected our #people around the world in the fight against this preventable disease. Education and information are key when it comes to CRC prevention – a topic, that also Luc Colemont, experienced gastroenterologist and founder of the Belgium non-profit organization Stop Darmkanker (België), is very passionate about. It was a great pleasure for us to welcome him at our European headquarters, where he gave a moving and educating keynote on CRC to our employees.   Timely screening is crucial because colorectal cancer can be prevented if detected early. March is coming to an end. Make it your start to take care of your #screening. 💙   #ColorectalCancerAwarenessMonth

The virtual doors are re-opened! One year ago, we participated in the #ShiningALight exhibition organized by MedTech Europe both at the European Parliament in Strasbourg and online.

Wearing blue throughout March has a very special meaning for us at Olympus: The color blue is a symbol of the fight against colorectal cancer and of solidarity with those people who are suffering from the disease. To raise awareness and in light of the global #DressInBlueDay initiative, we encourage our employees over the course of the month to dress in blue and make a photo to show their support. Big shout out to our colleagues in the Netherlands who have already taken part! What about you? Will you #dressinblue, too? #ColorectalCancerAwarenessMonth #TrueToLife

This #InternationalWomensDay, Olympus employees were inspired by the incredible events hosted by our dedicated Employee Resource Group (ERG), the ‘Olympus Women’s Network’ in EMEA! From panel discussions to networking events, the network created a space for connection, empowerment, and championed the theme #InspireInclusion.

Colorectal cancer is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer in Europe and the second highest cause of cancer death worldwide. Yet screening and early detection can make a huge difference in preventing the disease. To raise attention and support those affected, March is #ColorectalCancerAwarenessMonth. We at Olympus are determined to contribute to the fight against colorectal cancer. 💙 Our #endoscopy solutions help healthcare professionals detect, characterize and treat adenomas for their patients at an early stage. #EveryAdenomaCounts
