DSM's Vision 2010 builds on the strong
foundation of the former Vision 2005 program through which a successful shift
of DSM’s portfolio to specialty life science and performance material products
and more stable and higher earnings were realized. The new strategy program,
which has been named Vision 2010 – Building on Strengths, focuses
on accelerating profitable and innovative growth of DSM’s specialties
portfolio.
Based on a
strategic review of Vision 2010 in September 2007 DSM has decided to
accelerate the group’s shift to a specialty Life Sciences and Materials
Sciences company, deliver faster growth, higher margins and improved earnings
quality.
