In the meantime, day to day operations will be overseen by Norbert, with the full support of myself and the Hexagon Board of Directors. I would like to thank Paolo for his 14-year tenure with Hexagon and his last 2 years as CEO. Paolo has made many positive contributions to the results and strategy of the company. The Board would like to thank him and wish him every success for the future," says Ola Rollén, Chairman of the Board of Hexagon AB.
