EMS flew from Teterboro Airport in New Jersey to Van Nuys Airport in Los Angeles on the night of June 14, 2026, arriving just after midnight local time. The five-hour, ten-minute flight in the company's Gulfstream G650ER, tail number PR-GVI, brought EMS executives to Southern California.

The same week, on June 15, EMS began distributing Ozivy, its new semaglutida caneta, to pharmacies across Brazil, as reported by Valor Econômico and G1. The medication, the first synthetic semaglutida produced in Brazil, costs about 30% less than Novo Nordisk's Ozempic and represents a major commercial effort by the privately-held firm. Vice-president Marcus Sanchez has said the company aims to bring more of the informal GLP-1 market into regulated channels, per Exame. The Los Angeles visit likely involves investor or partner meetings connected to this roll-out and the company's broader peptide platform, which has received over R$1 billion in investment.

EMS has also been active internationally: earlier in June, the company's aircraft flew between Campinas and Nice, France, a route that connects its Hortolândia headquarters to European operations, including its Serbian subsidiary Galenika in Belgrade. The Teterboro-Van Nuys leg suggests a West Coast focus for the executive team this week.
