More info on splitting into 3 companies
Today (18 July 2022), GE issued a press release with info about the names of the three separate companies it will divide into:
- GE HealthCare
- GE Vernova
- GE Aerospace
It sounds like GE HealthCare will be spun out in 2023, GE Vernova spun out in 2024, and then the remaining "GE" will continue on as GE Aerospace. I don't have time today to weave this into the main article, but am leaving it here in case it is helpful to any other editors. - Dyork (talk) 19:41, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
- Additional detail can be added.
- This Nov 2021 press release gives more details on the split and the future of GE.
- This Sep 2022 press release gives a new spin-off date for GE Healthcare.
- Here's how I suggest these shape up this section:
- On November 9, 2021, the company announced it would divide into three public companies. On July 18, 2022, GE unveiled the brand names of the companies it will create through its planned separation: GE Aerospace, GE HealthCare and GE Vernova.[11][12] The new companies will be focused on aerospace, healthcare, and energy (renewable energy, power, and digital). The first spinoff, of GE HealthCare, is planned for the first week of January 2023, to be followed by the spinoff of GE’s portfolio of energy businesses in 2024, which plan to become GE Vernova. Following these transactions, GE will be an aviation-focused company named GE Aerospace focused on “shaping the future of flight.”[13][14]

GE weapons
Should we put something about GE's weapons? GE has made the M61 Vulcan and M134 Minigun. DJRaph (talk) 18:40, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
GE Healthcare Spinoff
With the completion of the GE Healthcare spin-off on Jan 4th, 2022, what changes should be made to reflect this change? I propose that we move the divisions that have been spun-off from the "subsidiary" list to the "Successor" category. When GE Vernova and GE Aerospace are split-up next year, they will be added to the category as well with their own pages while making this page historical.
Feedback for such a change would be appreciated,

- I agree with this. GE Aerospace is a successor to General Electric so it should be a separate page and the GE page should then go to using past tense with three successors. Tfkalk (talk) 03:59, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
