Sanofi Pasteur Korea has announced that Baptiste de Clarens will be the new General Manager of the unit, after the previous incumbent, Regis Launay, moved onto become Global Franchise Head for Paediatric and Booster Vaccines.

de Clarens begins the role after having previously worked as Managing Director for Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei – a role he occupied for three and a half years. Prior to this, he worked in Singapore as Business Operations Director for Asia. Predominantly, he has been based in Asia, working in a variety of roles across Sanofi Pasteur, where his roles have been focused on sales.

He will have to draw on this experience to maintain Sanofi Pasteur’s major contribution to the domestic vaccine market in South Korea. The company supplies the market with the influenza vaccine, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis vaccine, DTaP-IPV combo vaccine, Hib vaccine, meningococcal vaccine, Japanese encephalitis live vaccine and hepatitis A vaccine.

I am looking forward to working together with Korean colleagues to empower Koreans to live life to the fullest,” Baptiste de Clarens said upon his appointment.
