Walgreens Faces $200 Million Suit From Ex-CEO’s Startup

Greg Wasson worked for Walgreens for more than three decades, starting as an intern and serving as chief executive officer of the pharmacy giant from 2009 to 2014.

Now, a technology company Wasson co-founded is suing his former employer over a contract dispute. He and his partners claim current Walgreens CEO Roz Brewer reneged on an agreement to replace glass doors on store refrigerator displays with high-tech digital screens that would flash product information and advertisements at consumers while they were shopping for cold beverages.
