Angela Hwang

Chief Commercial Officer, President, Global Biopharmaceuticals Business

Angela Hwang is a member of Pfizer’s Executive Team and the Chief Commercial Officer and President of Pfizer’s Global Biopharmaceuticals Business, which is the commercial organization of Pfizer. Her organization of 26,000 colleagues across 125 countries is responsible for bringing over 600 innovative medicines and products to patients. In 2021, more than 1.4 billion people benefited from our medicines or vaccines to improve their health and, in some cases, save their lives. Altogether, Pfizer Biopharma generated almost $82 billion in 2021 revenues.

Pfizer’s Biopharma business encompasses transformational medicines that address major global health priorities including cancer, COVID, infectious diseases, inflammation & immunology, preventative care with vaccines, primary care, and rare disease. She is also responsible for the advancement of innovative access partnerships with payers and governments around the world.

Angela has been with Pfizer for 26 years, working across all geographies and therapeutic areas. She is motivated by the common purpose that all Pfizer colleagues share, to bring breakthroughs to patients, regardless of where they are in the world. Her childhood as an Asian girl growing up in apartheid South Africa, defined her worldview and underscored the importance of equity in everything she does today.

Angela is a member of the Board of Directors of UPS, the global leader in supply chain logistics and package delivery, EFPIA (European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations), as well as the Pfizer Foundation, a charitable organization that addresses global health challenges. In 2019, she was named in Crain’s Notable Women in Healthcare list. Angela has also been ranked in Fortune’s Top 50 Most Powerful Women list for the past three years, at #16 in 2020 and #11 in 2021, and in 2022, Angela was ranked #13 in the 25th anniversary edition of the list, which for the first time included both domestic and international female leaders of the globe’s largest companies. Angela has also been recognized in Forbes’ inaugural CEO Next list. She has also been honored as one of Modern Healthcare’s Top 25 Women Leaders, and as an A100 Honoree, which celebrates the 100 most impactful AAPI leaders of the past year. She received the President’s AwardTM from the National Diversity Council in 2021, for her efforts to champion diversity, equity, and inclusion. In 2022, Angela was also named the 39th Cornell University Robert S. Hatfield Economic Fellow.

Having always been curious about transformation and the art of the possible, in 2019, Angela launched Diverse Perspectives, a podcast series where she hosts global thought leaders pioneering change across a variety of industries.

Angela received her Bachelor of Science in Microbiology and Biochemistry from the University of Cape Town and her MBA from Cornell University, where she remains a Member of the Advisory Council of the SC Johnson Graduate School of Business. She is a wife and proud mom to a teenage son and daughter, and a strong advocate for women’s leadership and sustainable global health equity.
