Hubertus von Baumbach (born 1968) is a German businessman who is the chairman and CEO of Boehringer Ingelheim, Germany's second largest pharmaceutical company.[1]
Early life and education

Career
Baumbach joined Boehringer Ingelheim in 2001.[3]
In November 2015, it was announced that Baumbach, who had been CFO, was appointed as chief executive, succeeding Andreas Barner in June 2016.[2][1] At the time, this made him the first member of the family at the helm in 25 years.[4] Within his first six months, he launched the biggest acquisition in the company's history (an asset swap deal with French rival Sanofi), followed by a reorganization to give the group a more decentralized divisional structure.[5]
In his capacity at Boehringer Ingelheim, Baumbach was part of Chancellor Angela Merkel’s delegation on three state visits to China.[6]
