Sanofi appoints new member to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Board

Sanofi has appointed Elisabeth Moreno, former French Minister for Gender Equality, Diversity and Equal opportunities, to its Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DE&I) Board for the next three years.

Created in 2022 at the executive level with the aim to accelerate Sanofi’s DE&I agenda globally, this advisory council’s role is to support Sanofi’s DE&I strategy, to monitor progress on the company’s 2025 goals and to advise on how to amplify its impact in this space.

Moreno has worked in various industries and fast paced international environments, such as France Télécom (now Orange), Dell and Lenovo. One of her latest positions was Lead for the African continent organization at Hewlett Packard.

In 2020, she was appointed by the President of the French Republic, Emmanuel Macron, as Minister for Gender Equality, Diversity and Equal opportunities in the French government, where she successfully introduced a bill intended to protect victims of domestic violence and another one to promote women economic emancipation and a law to protect victims of conversion therapies. In 2021, she launched a platform to fight discrimination together with the Advocate of Human Rights.

Moreno joins social entrepreneur Caroline Casey, thought-leader Dr. Rohini Anand, Sanofi CEO Paul Hudson and other Sanofi members on the DE&I Board.
