2025 in Review: Progress Delivered with Purpose

During 2025, NSF remained focused on execution. We reinforced our foundations while continuing to work with clients and partners around the world in pursuit of our mission to protect and advance human health. The year also marked the completion of Mission 2025. Through this initiative, we expanded our laboratory network and invested in technology to improve scalability and client experience. We also developed programs in collaboration with regulators and industry. Together, these steps enhanced NSF’s ability to deliver practical, science-based solutions. They help organizations navigate evolving regulatory, scientific and market expectations while reinforcing consumer confidence.
