The man was initially identified as one Gordon Findlay, and many claimed he was a Novo Nordisk executive. “BREAKING: Novo Nordisk executive Gordon Findlay collapses during Trump's announcement in Oval Office, announcement suspended,” an account claimed on X.

However, the company has clarified that the man who collapsed was not with them. “CEO Mike Doustdar and EVP, US Operations, Dave Moore were the only two Novo Nordisk representatives in the Oval Office. We hope the gentleman who suffered a medical incident today is okay,” Novo Nordisk told Newsweek.

While Novo Nordisk has clarified that Gordon Findlay was not in the Oval Office meeting, he has been the Global Brand Director for the company since 2023, and is based in Basel, Switzerland.
