GM partnered with Ventec Life Systems to boost the company’s ventilator production.
Ventec will tap GM’s logistics, manufacturing and purchasing to ramp up production. The partnership was made possible by StopTheSpread.org, the private sector's response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The partnership is a vital step to help relieve an already strained healthcare system. Ventec CEO Chris Kiple says the partnership "will help save lives.”
GM CEO Mary Barra says the company will "continue to explore ways to help in this time of crisis.”
