Scott Richardson, currently the company's chief operating officer, has been appointed as CEO and will join the company’s board of directors, effective Jan. 1. Edward Galante has been named as the company's new board chair, succeeding outgoing CEO Lori Ryerkerk.
Kim K.W. Rucker succeeds William M. “Bill” Brown who, as previously announced, decided not to seek re-election to the board in conjunction with his appointment as the new CEO of 3M Corp.
Chairman and CEO Lori Ryerkerk said the purpose behind the three new appointments for Scott Richardson, Chuck Kyrish, and Ashley Duffie "is to enhance the alignment of our individual strengths and experience to the value-enhancing opportunities at Celanese."
The foundation's $626,000 grant will be used by Irving-based Celanese Corporation to produce a refillable contraceptive implant. The project's goal is to help women in developing countries who lack access to modern contraception options, and could benefit from more flexibility and control.
To develop the device, Celanese will use its VitalDose drug delivery platform, an implantable device for controlled drug release that’s been used commercially in the U.S. and Europe.
