Vision & Business Principles
Oxitec aims to be a world leader in the field of biological insect pest control by developing and introducing technology to improve the well-established Sterile
Insect Technique (SIT). Potential improvements include enhanced effectiveness, reduced cost, a wider range of applications, and reduced environmental impact of this already very environment-friendly approach. Oxitec’s
technology will have a significant beneficial impact on both agriculture
and public health and will be a valuable tool in integrated pest
management programs.
- Oxitec will maintain high professional and ethical standards;
we will be open and honest, positive and constructive, and worthy
of trust and respect in all our activities.
- Oxitec will comply with national and international legislation,
which has a bearing on the conduct of its activities.
- Science sometimes moves on more quickly than the law. Where
international and national legislation and guidelines do not yet
address aspects of new technical advances relevant to our activities,
Oxitec undertakes to contribute constructively to public debate
with the aim of establishing appropriate standards.
