HP Inc. has appointed Emma Walmsley as its chief executive officer, effective January 4, 2027. Interim CEO Bruce Broussard will step down when the transition takes effect. Walmsley, previously best known for leading GlaxoSmithKline, moves into one of the most prominent roles in US technology hardware, and the surprise cross-industry choice is drawing attention from investors and business commentators.

Why now: The appointment is an unexpected cross-sector move that puts a former pharmaceutical chief at the top of a major tech company, prompting debate over the strategy behind it.
