GE holding on to life-science operations
Jeffrey Immelt, GE’s chairman and CEO, has been busy reshaping the company so that it revolves more around heavy industry, but there appear to be no current plans to sell GE’s life-sciences business.
As reported by Bloomberg Business, GE is actually looking to grow that side of its business, which includes imaging, chromatography, cell-therapy tools, and more.
