Future Viatris Chief Executive Officer and current Upjohn Group President Michael Goettler said, "Our new branding exemplifies that we are building a new kind of company designed for where the healthcare industry is going. Viatris will have the global reach, commercial offerings and capabilities, as well as the scientific, medical, regulatory, legal and intellectual property expertise necessary to ensure more patients can get the care they need to live healthier at every stage of life. Viatris will be uniquely positioned to help patients access the medicines they need regardless of their geography or circumstance."
