SOFTWARE R&D – OUR CORE RaySearch’s entire business is permeated by patient safety and the safety around our products. To remain a leading manufacturer of medical software, and to meet the high demands and expectations of our stakeholders, safety, responsibility and high business ethics are crucial. Further, continuous innovation is a prerequisite for us to be successful and that is why more than half of our employees work within R&D.

A key part of the development of new RaySearch software products is to constantly contribute to increased resource efficiency in cancer care – in terms of time, quality, costs and materials. In this way, the environmental impact can be reduced. STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS ARE CRUCIAL Collaborating with strategic partners is key. In order for us to be able to develop the best, safest and most efficient software solutions, we collaborate with both leading equipment suppliers and the most prominent cancer clinics. Our entire development model is based on these partnerships, which provide us with extensive clinical knowledge and resources.

PROFITABLE AND SUSTAINABLE GROWTH For RaySearch, long-term profitability and high business ethics are of the utmost importance as this guarantees sustainable development for all our stakeholders. ATTRACTIVE EMPLOYER – PIONEERS WITH A CLEAR MISSION To succeed in achieving our vision, to overcome the enormous challenge that cancer poses for people around the world, we need to attract and retain committed and motivated employees with specialist competences in different areas. This requires a culture of pioneering spirit where we dare to challenge ourselves and think innovatively, with customers and patients in focus. Diversity and equality are also important parts of an innovative culture. Your gender, religious beliefs, sexual orientation or socioeconomic background will hopefully add flavor to our innovation, if you are a pioneer you will be a part of our team. At RaySearch, we aim to give all employees the same conditions and opportunities. We have maintained a – for the industry – high proportion of women. During 2020 as many as 35 percent of all employees were women. The focus on equal treatment and equality will continue during 2021.
