Today we announced that, after a multi-year succession process, Takeda’s Board of Directors has made a unanimous decision to appoint Julie Kim, currently president of Takeda’s U.S. Business Unit, as the successor to Christophe Weber, president and CEO, when Christophe retires from Takeda in June 2026.    Now is the right time to prepare for a CEO transition given our competitive growth outlook and new product launches expected from the second half of 2026 onwards.    More details, including information about forward-looking statements, on Takeda.com. https://lnkd.in/dGZC-KsD
