STOCKHOLM, April 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Neonode Inc.
(NASDAQ: NEON) ("Neonode" or the "Company") today announced that
Dr. Urban Forssell, following
consultation with the Board of Directors, will leave his position
as Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") of Neonode effective
immediately. The Company's Chief Financial Officer, Fredrik Nihlén, has been appointed interim CEO
until a new CEO is appointed. Dr. Forssell will serve as a
strategic advisor to the Company and the Board of Directors until
the end of 2024.
In December 2023, Neonode
announced a new, sharpened strategy with full focus on the
licensing business and a phase out of its Touch Sensor Module
product business through licensing to strategic partners or
outsourcing. The departure of Dr. Forssell comes as Neonode enters
into the next phase of its growth journey.
"The Board would like to thank Dr. Forssell for his contribution
to Neonode during the past four years. Urban has been instrumental
in streamlining the business and building a solid platform for
business expansion. As we enter a new phase in the business, with
focus on growth through licensing and forming strategic
partnerships, there is a need for new leadership to take us to the
next level," says Ulf Rosberg,
Chairman of the Board.
