Jeffrey Whitford, Vice President of Sustainability and Social Business Innovation for MilliporeSigma, the U.S. and Canada Life Science business of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt Germany, is a featured guest this week on the Impact Podcast with John Shegerian. The show is hosted by Shegerian, Co-Founder and Chairman/CEO of ERI.

MilliporeSigma is a $11 billion global science and technology company committed to enhancing the human experience through curiosity and sustainability. In his role, Whitford is a strategic partner to the business to accelerate, embed and amplify sustainability principles and impact across its business operations to drive new business models, margin expansion, revenue generation and cost savings. As Whitford explains in the interview, this is all with one goal in mind: to reduce the business’ impact on the environment and to enable customers to make more sustainable choices.

“It was an honor to have Jeffrey, a true sustainability innovation leader in the world of science, on our show to share his story and describe some of the incredibly impactful work he and the team at MilliporeSigma are accomplishing,” said Shegerian. “Our audience is sure to be inspired by and learn much from his insights.”

“I enjoyed speaking with John about our sustainability journey and the opportunity to share the actions and investments we're making in greener products and solutions, employee and community engagement and sustainable operations,” said Whitford. “I also valued his interest in my path to becoming a leader in the sustainability sector. I hope the audience walks away with practical ideas that they can implement or help reinvigorate their own sustainability principles.”
