Seamus McHugh departs Intouch.com to take on Head of European Market Development role at Simbe Robotics
Seamus McHugh is joining US-based Simbe Robotics as Head of European Market Development.
He was previously Retail Sales Director at Intouch.com, a two sided media network in which physical retailers enrol their in-store digital displays and advertisers compete to advertise on them.
In a LinkedIn post, McHugh said: “Simbe have developed the world’s first and most advanced inventory robot for physical retail stores that autonomously scans shelves using AI to identify out-of-stock, misplaced, or mispriced products, as well as generate comprehensive product location data for efficient inventory replenishment.”
“It then delivers high quality, real-time actionable insights for the retailer to drive improved store operations.”
