A vision to believe in.
Bioventus has committed to creating a welcoming, inclusive, and supportive work environment for every employee. Our company’s highest levels of leadership are 100% committed to these outcomes.
Diversity
elevates performance.
Companies with equal men and women earn 41% more revenue.2
Our vision
The words diversity, equity, and inclusion are everywhere these days.
Equity
ignites greater trust.
Companies with the most ethnically/ culturally diverse executive teams are 33% more likely to outperform their peers on profitability.1
But behind the words is a reality too long ignored: we are not all alike. Each of us brings to the table a unique combination of knowledge, skills, values, and life experience.
Inclusion
ensures everyone is heard.
Diverse groups outperform groups of even the best performers at solving problems.3
We are each part of the ‘plus’ in Bio+.
Delivering on our promises to our customers and to each other requires that we bring our best selves to our work. And our best selves are always our whole selves. But we only bring our whole selves to the table when we believe we will be seen and valued for who we are—that our differences will be respected and valued.
That’s the purpose of the Bio+ culture: to recognize, embrace, and even leverage those differences. Because taken together with what we have in common, our differences can help make us even stronger.
We already know home is where the heart is. Is there a home for our hearts at work? We say, “Yes, of course.” After all, most of us spend more time with coworkers than anyone else in our lives, even our family and friends. Showing up with trust, goodwill, openness, and empathy makes us better people—and better at our jobs.
Let’s do this.
We resolve to make Bioventus more than a good company to work for. We’re going to make Bioventus a place where each employee can feel, “I belong—I am seen and heard, accepted and valued here.” We know that in doing so, we will become a more competitive, resilient, and vibrant company.
Women are making history in every role, location, and level at Bioventus.
That’s why we celebrate Women’s History Month and honor our Women in Leadership Employee Resource Group (ERG). The ERG’s mission is to foster a community that elevates women, enhances their representation at all levels, develops their capabilities, and amplifies their influence across the organization.

bWell is breaking down barriers at Bioventus!
Mental health and neurodiversity are not always easy topics to talk about. At Bioventus, however, our bWell Employee Resource Group (ERG) actively engages in these conversations.
“We want to create awareness and remove the stigma around mental health,” says Callie Rozsa, Director of Sales (US) for Restorative Therapies and bWell’s inspiring co-leader. “That starts by talking openly and honestly about these issues. Because let’s face it: Mental health and brain function influence every aspect of our lives, especially our work.”
Stay tuned for more to come as bWell continues to foster understanding, build a workplace where every voice matters, and make Bioventus a neurodiverse-friendly company.

Bicycles, dolls, board games … Hundred and hundreds of toys have flooded into our offices in support of Bioventus’ second annual toy drive, in partnership with the Durham Rescue Mission.
This year’s goal was to collect 500 toys, and we are thrilled to say we blew past it easily. In fact, our employees gave 720+ toys to the drive—more than double last year’s donation.
Congratulations to our Black Employees United in Leadership and Diversity (BUILD) ERG for a hugely successful effort to benefit Durham’s oldest and largest long-term homeless shelter!
#BioventusCares #givingback #holidays @rescuemissionsnc
Bioventus employees decked the halls with holiday cheer ✨
We gathered to enjoy a potluck lunch, holiday trivia games, and—you bet!—an ugly sweater contest. (In honor of employees with good taste, we recognized the “most festive sweater” too.)
Thanks to our Fun Committee elves for putting us all into the holiday spirit!

Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are making a huge impact on Bioventus’ culture.
Launched in 2022, our ERGs are all about building connections, fostering communities, promoting personal and professional growth, and driving positive change in the world. And that’s exactly what they’re doing!
To give just a few examples: Our ERGs’ efforts have prompted Bioventus to recognize Juneteenth as a company holiday, develop a net zero emissions plan, and update our employee recruitment policies.
We’re proud of all our incredible ERGs:
- BUILD ― Black and African Americans United in Leadership and Development
- MERGE ― Multi-Generational Employee Resource Group
- Women in Leadership: Sales
- Women in Leadership: Corporate & Remote
- bWell ― Mental Health and Neurodiversity ERG
- POP ― People of Pride
- PLUG ― Passionate Leaders United for a Greener Future
- HOLA ― Hispanic and Latino Organization for Leadership and Advancements

Just wrapped up Bioventus’ Women in Leadership-hosted event, “How to be a Confident Communicator,” featuring the brilliant Karen Laos!
Karen shared invaluable insights, wisdom, and practical tips that can make a significant difference in how effectively we communicate. One of Karen’s favorite techniques: If you find yourself rambling, stop, pause, and say, “My point is...”
Thanks to everyone who joined the event. Your engagement and enthusiasm are truly inspiring!
Stay tuned, because the Women in Leadership ERG is shaping up to be an empowering force here at #Bioventus.

A river runs through Bioventus’ new employee resource group (ERG)—specifically, the Wolf River, in Tennessee.
Members of our new PLUG (Passionate Leaders United for a Greener future) ERG recently sponsored a “lunch and learn” event with the Wolf River Conservancy.
About 60 of our Memphis-based employees attended, learning about the river’s history and its importance to communities and businesses.

We’re thrilled to share that our Women in Leadership (WIL) ERG, based in Durham, had the privilege of participating in a volunteer activity with one of our esteemed corporate partners, Dress for Success Triangle NC. Earlier today, our WIL ERG members teamed up to support the Raleigh organization’s Boutique Sale. As you can see from the photos, we had a great time helping to put away clothing, manage fitting rooms, assist at the jewelry counter, and ring up the sales. Proceeds are used to purchase specific items Dress for Success needs for its clients and programs.
We take immense pride in supporting Dress for Success`s incredible work: providing resources of support, professional attire, and essential tools women need to thrive both at work and in life.
Thank you to Rhonda Payne and Christine Trogdon, two of our WIL ERG members, for organizing this effort.
Stay tuned for more updates on our journey to create a more inclusive and empowered world!
