NESS ZIONA, ISRAEL – Nano Dimension appointed Yoav Stern president and CEO, effective Jan. 2.

He will succeed cofounder and current CEO Amit Dror, who is taking the executive role of customer success officer, reporting directly to Stern. Dror will also continue to serve as a director on the company’s board of directors.

“The board is pleased to have attracted a proven turnaround executive of Stern’s caliber to lead Nano Dimension,” said Avi Reichental, chairman of the board. “Throughout his career, Yoav successfully transitioned several promising advanced-tech companies into scalable growth, and that is exactly what Nano Dimension needs at this stage. We are very grateful to Amit Dror, cofounder and current CEO, who together with the board ably initiated and led the search for his successor, and will remain part of the company’s leadership team, serving as customer success officer.”

“I am excited to take the leadership rains of a company with Nano Dimension technology and market potential,” said Stern. “I believe world-leading high-caliber customer engagement, combined with the technology stack that Nano Dimension has already developed is unprecedented. Nano Dimension offers unique capability in jetting the conductive and dielectric materials and embedding high-performance components such as capacitors and coax. It positions the company for the kind of exponential growth in digital electronics manufacturing I fully intend to drive, mirroring the traction and revenue generation growth the mechanical 3-D printing industry is exhibiting.”

“As cofounder of the company, I am proud of our success in converting our cutting-edge vision into a successful product that is changing the way electronics are made,” said Dror. “While the company enjoys revenue growth, global recognition and increased adoption, I believe we can do much better. After spending several months with Yoav, I concluded he is the right person to lead us forward and have personally asked him to succeed me and realize the company’s full potential.”
