HP Inc Hires Former GSK CEO Emma Walmsley
November 4, 2026 · 1 source
Former GSK boss Emma Walmsley is taking over as the new chief executive of HP Inc. The move comes as the company deals with customers sweating their assets amid tight budgets. Windows also pushed AI PCs, but the push hit a wall of high RAM prices. Microsoft executives have had to get creative with their sales pitches to move units. Meanwhile, Anthropic is seeing its compute tab potentially top one trillion dollars as its quarterly revenue nears seventeen billion dollars. Their revised IPO filing warns that twelve times revenue growth is unlikely to continue. Elsewhere, Drax wants to build a twenty billion pound datacenter at a biomass power station to feed Britain's AI habit. That project still needs planning permission and government approval. It also needs to find a customer first.
