ORGANIZATIONAL PROFILE

Meet Lonza

Lonza is one of the world’s largest contract development and manufacturing organizations (CDMOs), partnering with healthcare companies to bring new therapies to life. Working with customers ranging from emerging biotechs to global pharmaceutical companies, Lonza helps turn scientific discoveries into life-saving and life-enhancing treatments. The company aims to lead the CDMO industry through advanced science, smart technology, and efficient manufacturing.

THE CHALLENGE

Reaching employees beyond email

Lonza relied heavily on email to share company updates, events, and reminders. But many manufacturing employees don’t sit at desks or check email during their shifts. Important messages were easy to miss.

This created an unintended gap between office-based teams and frontline manufacturing staff. Company announcements, culture-building messages, and time-sensitive updates were more accessible to office employees, while production teams felt less connected to what was happening across the organization.

At the same time, Lonza needed a more effective way to reinforce cleanliness, safety, and other updates – messages that needed to be visible, timely, and easy to update.

THE SOLUTION

A shared communication channel for everyone

Lonza rolled out Appspace digital signage across offices and the manufacturing floor to make information easy to see and hard to miss.

Screens now display company announcements, town hall updates, and event reminders in real time. Using AI-assisted content tools, the team quickly creates clear, professional messages for safety, cleanliness, and compliance—without slowing down their day.

With one centralized platform, Lonza publishes once and reaches everyone on site.

THE RESULTS

Clearer communication and stronger connection

Today, Lonza reaches employees across the entire facility – office and manufacturing alike. Frontline teams stay informed, communications teams move faster, and important reminders are always visible.

The result is a more connected workforce, smoother communication, and a stronger culture of safety and compliance.
