GE announced the brand names of the future companies it will create through its planned separation into three industry-leading, global, investment-grade public companies focused on the growth sectors of healthcare, energy and aviation.
GE Aerospace will be the name of GE’s aviation business.
H. Lawrence Culp, Jr., chairman and CEO, GE, and CEO, GE Aerospace, said, “Today marks a key milestone in GE’s plan to become three independent, laser-focused companies. Leveraging GE’s multi-billion-dollar global brand gives us a competitive advantage in our end markets, allowing these businesses to win in the future. Built on a foundation of lean and innovation, these brands will continue our mission of building a world that works and provide our customers with an important reminder of the strengths they value in GE.”
With an installed base of 39,400 commercial and 26,200 military aircraft engines, the GE Aerospace will continue to play a vital role in supporting the industry through a historic recovery while shaping the future of flight.
