HP appointed Emma Walmsley, former GSK chief and Microsoft board member, as its new CEO starting January 4, replacing interim CEO Bruce Broussard. Walmsley, who lacks tech hardware experience but has led major corporate restructurings, will guide HP through a challenging memory chip shortage that has raised costs and slowed the PC industry. The company aims to boost profitability and expand into AI-enabled devices amid declining PC shipments and rising prices. HP faces similar supply constraints as peers like Dell and Apple due to high demand for memory chips in AI data centers.
