The CEO of GE HealthCare talks about his plan for how GE HealthCare's teams and partnerships in India can play a central role in its global operations
Peter J Arduini, CEO, GE Healthcare.
Peter J Arduini (59), the first president and CEO of an independent GE HealthCare (GEHC, Nasdaq), started his career as a manager at Procter & Gamble in 1986. A chance phone call about a company called GE and medical equipment set him on his current path, and the fascination with the combination of great med-tech and business value has sustained his purpose, he says.
After his first 15 years at GE, Arduini left for the next 17. Before returning in 2022, he was president and CEO of Integra LifeSciences, a smaller med-tech company focussed on reconstructive and general surgery.
During his recent visit, Arduini spoke to Forbes India about his plan for how GE HealthCare’s teams and partnerships in India can play a central role in its global operations. Edited excerpts.
