What’s in a Name?
At Ironwood, we have always taken the long view:
We hope to grow, and one step at a time, build a pharmaceutical company that helps people lead better lives. So, we named ourselves after the Ironwood tree, which can live for thousands of years in the harshest desert, creating a shaded microclimate in which life thrives.
Iron, like science, is undeniable and strong. Wood, like artistry and humanity, is flexible, resilient and versatile. The two words together represent our passion for making a positive impact on the health – and lives – of GI patients, their families and communities.
