Pierre Mikaelsson appointed Chief Product Officer at industrial wearable scanning solutions firm ProGlove

ProGlove has a new Chief Product Officer (CPO).

Pierre Mikaelsson will oversee product creation, effective immediately, following on from Ilhan Kolko, who left the wearable tech specialist in late 2023. 

Mikaelsson previously served as Executive Vice President and Head of R&D at Nilfisk, a provider of professional cleaning equipment. Before that, he was the CTO at Kuka in China.

He began his career at ABB and served as ABB Robotics Global Technology Manager (CTO).

“I am impressed with the beauty of simplicity in ProGlove’s solution. Their usability is second to none and extremely beneficial to users,” says Mikaelsson.

“I look forward to emphasising the data value proposition and designing the next generation of wearable scanner solutions by leveraging their unique connectivity.”

“Pierre not only has the technological and engineering skill set we were looking for but also brings the leadership experience we need to manage our internationally diverse team,” says Stefan Lampa, CEO at ProGlove.

“This will be critical for driving innovation, meeting the needs of our global customers, and addressing the challenges of our complex industry.”
