Ex-adlander Charlie Gearside set for windfall after $1.6 billion Eucalyptus sale
"Content guy" Charlie Gearside in action
A former art director for M+C Saatchi and Special Group is poised for a major payday after the weight-loss telehealth start-up he co-founded, Eucalyptus, was sold for A$1.6 billion.
Charlie Gearside, a self-described “content guy”, was one of four founders of Eucalyptus. The group owns Juniper, a brand that has drawn criticism for its aggressive promotion of weight-loss treatments, including the drugs Wegovy and Mounjaro.
