FUJIFILM Europe GmbH, the European regional headquarter of the Japanese imaging company FUJIFILM, announces the formation of the new regional headquarter FUJIFILM Healthcare Europe GmbH, separating its medical systems headquarter business from its imaging and materials business for increased agility and more autonomy in decision making and setting strategic priorities.
