Following a routine health check and a series of tests, our CEO, Lutz Schüler, has recently been diagnosed with prostate cancer. Thankfully, this has been caught in the early stages, his prognosis is very positive, and he’s expected to make a full recovery following surgery in the coming days.
Understandably, Lutz needs to take some time to focus on his health and recovery so Patricia Cobian, Virgin Media O2’s CFO, will act as CEO in addition to her current role over the next 4 to 8 weeks, with continued support from the Virgin Media O2 Executive Committee.
We wish Lutz a speedy recovery and look forward to having him back to his usual fighting-fit self.
We want to use this moment to raise awareness of prostate cancer and encourage men to regularly get checked by their GP or health provider. More information can be found via the links below:
