Pluri Appoints Alejandro Weinstein as Chairman of the Board to Lead Strategic Shift and Unlock Value, Backed by Additional Investment
Pluri has appointed Alejandro Weinstein, one of the company’s largest shareholders, as Chairman of the Board of Directors to lead a strategic shift and unlock shareholder value.12
Weinstein is backing his appointment with an additional investment, and his ownership stake is expected to increase to approximately 30% of Pluri’s issued and outstanding shares.12
The Board selected Weinstein because of his global track record in value creation, including participation in over 20 M&A transactions and more than $5 billion in exits across healthcare, biotechnology, and nutrition.12
Weinstein previously helped transform CFR Pharmaceuticals into a multinational group that was later acquired by Abbott for $2.9 billion, and he founded investment platforms such as WM Partners, Olive Tree Ventures, and Vanterra Ventures.12
As part of the leadership changes, long‑time Chairman Zami Aberman, who led the Board for about two decades, will transition to the role of Vice Chairman, continuing to support Pluri’s strategic direction and ensuring a smooth leadership transition.12
Weinstein stated he is committed to making the strategic changes needed to drive Pluri into its next stage of growth, emphasizing the company’s strong platform, promising commercial pathways, and significant untapped asset potential.12
CEO and President Yaky Yanay said Weinstein’s increased investment and new role signal the beginning of a new phase for Pluri focused on sharpening execution, accelerating commercialization, and unlocking the value of its platform and ventures for shareholders.12
The appointment and investment are framed as central to strengthening Pluri’s market positioning and speeding up recognition and realization of the value embedded in its underlying assets.134
