Hubertus von Baumbach

Baumbach joined Boehringer Ingelheim in 2001.^[3]

In November 2015, it was announced that Baumbach, who had been CFO, was appointed as chief executive, succeeding Andreas Barner in June 2016.^[2][1] At the time, this made him the first member of the family at the helm in 25 years.^[4] Within his first six months, he launched the biggest acquisition in the company's history (an asset swap deal with French rival Sanofi), followed by a reorganization to give the group a more decentralized divisional structure.^[5]

In his capacity at Boehringer Ingelheim, Baumbach was part of Chancellor Angela Merkel’s delegation on three state visits to China.^[6]
