3M announced Bryan C. Hanson, CEO of orthopedic company Zimmer Biomet, has been appointed to lead the independent healthcare company that is to be spun off from 3M, as its new CEO. Hanson will join 3M on September 1 as CEO of the Health Care Business Group. He has served as president and CEO of Zimmer Biomet since 2017, and chairman since 2021. “We are pleased to have Bryan join us to successfully complete the spin-off of our Health Care business and build a leading independent medical technology innovation company,” Mike Roman, 3M chairman and CEO told the press. “His industry expertise, ability to drive growth, and track record of building a strong culture and teams will make an immediate impact.” 3M’s Health Care Business group had $8.4 billion of sales in 2022. The company has wound care, oral care, health care IT, and biopharma filtration products. “I am honored and excited to join 3M’s Health Care Business Group at such an important time in its evolution,” said Hanson. “I have a deep respect and admiration for what 3M has built in health care—strong brands, quality products, commercial excellence, and customer-driven innovation. I look forward to working with the team to more deeply understand and realize the potential of our business as we accelerate our path forward, and build on a legacy of trusted leadership and medical innovation.” Before Zimmer Biomet, Hanson was executive VP and president of Medtronic’s Minimally Invasive Therapies Group. Before Medtronic, he was in various executive roles at Covidien and was named group president of Covidien’s Medical Device business in 2013. In 2011, as Surgical Solutions group president, he transformed Covidien’s energy-based devices and surgical devices businesses into one global business unit. Further executives were also appointed to the 3M healthcare spinoff, also Sept 1. Carrie Cox, Organon chairman and former Humacyte CEO, will be chairman of the board. 3M executive VP and chief financial and transformation officer Monish Patowalala will be promoted to 3M president and CFO. Hanson has been replaced at Zimmer Biomet by chief operating officer Ivan Tornos, effective immediately.
