Artistic head of Hamburg Ballet let go amid work culture complaints
Demis Volpi, a German-Argentinian choreographer, is to step down as artistic director of the world-renowned Hamburg Ballet Company following massive criticism from the ensemble over a "toxic work environment." Volpi's contract will be prematurely terminated following mutual agreement and the 39-year-old is set to leave the company at the end of the season, the local cultural authority in the northern German city said on Tuesday. As part of the agreement, Volpi is set to stop working at the ballet immediately, it said. Volpi, who succeeded the company's founder John Neumeier, a 86-year-old American, a year ago, has been the subject of widespread criticism, including from the company's dancers. In a letter to Hamburg's culture minister, 36 dancers - more than half of the company - accused him of creating a "toxic work environment" as well as a lack of competence. Seventeen former and current dancers at the Dusseldorf-based Ballett am Rhein, where Volpi worked previously, also sent complaints to the Hamburg minister. In response, management at the Hamburg State Opera, which includes the ballet company, launched a risk assessment to question all ensemble members anonymously about their work situation. "My vision - both in artistic terms and with regard to a contemporary structure that enables open and responsible collaboration within a ballet company - could no longer be realized under the current conditions at the Hamburg Ballet, despite intensive efforts," Volpi said. "In the interests of all those involved, we have therefore agreed to end my directorship by mutual consent." Following Volpi's departure, efforts are under way to find an interim artistic director to lead the company until the conclusion of the 2025/26 season.

Italian PharmaNutra Expands to Morocco
Rabat – Italian pharmaceutical and nutraceutical company PharmaNutra has signed a new agreement to bring its health products to Morocco. This makes Morocco one of the latest countries, including Bahrain and Peru, to welcome PharmaNutra's supplements and medical devices. The distribution agreement in Morocco was signed last September with Alcantara Pharmaceuticals. Registration is now underway for three of PharmaNutra's products: SiderAL, SiderAL Gocce, and Apportal, said PharmaNutra in a press release. These products are expected to be available starting next year 'in what is considered one of the leading economies in Africa,' added the statement. After signing the new contracts in Morocco, Bahrain, and Peru, the pharmaceutical company has expanded its presence to reach 88 foreign countries. 'These are important numbers, achieved in just over ten years of international activity by the Group, making them even more meaningful,' said Carlo Volpi, CEO of PharmaNutra. 'It's clear that the key difference lies in the scientific value of our products, the result of extraordinary work by our Research & Development department,' Volpi added. The expansion is part of PharmaNutra's strategy to grow its presence worldwide while continuing to focus on quality, science, and innovation, said the company. PharmaNutra specializes in iron-based supplements and medical products that help with muscle and joint health. The company was founded in 2003 by Andrea and Roberto Lacorte.
