For him, inclusion is a commitment to actively supporting our people, laying the essential groundwork that empowers our people to bring their full potential to the table. We are proud to stand with our LGBTQ community this month and every month, continuing the daily work of building a culture where everyone belongs. #Pride2026 #CultureOfBelonging

This month’s #EmployeeSpotlight is Mike Hirschmann, recently promoted to Orca Bio’s Chief Commercial Officer (CCO). Mike, previously our Senior Vice President of US Commercial, joined Orca Bio from Legend Biotech and brings nearly 30 years of biotechnology and pharmaceutical expertise, with specialization in hematology/oncology and cell gene therapy. His experience launching a landmark CAR-T therapy will be invaluable at #TeamOrcaBio as we look to bring a first-of-its-kind high-precision therapy to blood cancer patients. With the potential approval of our lead investigational cell therapy on the horizon, we’re thrilled to have Mike's experience and passion at the forefront of our commercial launch readiness efforts.
