Gregor Kevrekian, previously senior director of CVS Health’s corporate development and venture investing business, has ascended to executive director.

US-headquartered pharmacy chain CVS Health has promoted its corporate development and venture investing team’s senior director, Gregor Kevrekian, to executive director.

Kevrekian was a senior director at medical insurance provider Aetna for almost three years, moving to the same position at CVS when it acquired Aetna for $78bn in November 2018.

His role at Aetna involved Kevrekian leading mergers and acquisitions, divestitures and joint venture deals on its behalf, and conducting early-stage investments through its corporate venturing unit, Aetna Ventures.
