He managed this business unit for four years until 2013, when he became head of the global development center at the austrian Sandoz facilities in Kundl and Schaftenau.
Since 2016, Dr. Glombitza directed the operational development activities at Formycon as Chief Operating Officer (COO) before being appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO) with effect from July 01, 2022.
