Rippon Ubhi is the new Country Lead for Sanofi UK and Ireland
Having spent close to twenty years in senior commercial leadership roles – living and working in Japan and the United States for ten of these – Rippon Ubhi brings the global experience needed to deliver Sanofi’s ambition to be the leading immunology company by 2030 and the first pharmaceutical company powered by artificial intelligence at scale.
A woman at the helm of UK leadership is nothing new for Sanofi (Rippon is taking the reins from her predecessor, Jessamy Baird), yet is still noteworthy in a sector that has typically seen underrepresentation when it comes to women in senior science and research roles.
In 2020, women made up less than 30% of the STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) workforce in the UK, and despite remarkable discoveries, only 18% of senior scientific roles are held by women in Europe.
