Global smart lighting control company Casambi has appointed Mark McClear as its new Chief Executive Officer. McClear takes over from Kari Mettälä, who, following five years of dynamic leadership, has stepped down to pursue other strategic priorities.
“It’s an honor to lead Casambi,” said McClear. “This is an exciting juncture in the lighting industry as luminaires become increasingly smarter. From stamped metal and screw-in lamps, we’ve advanced to integrated LEDs, and it’s now inevitable that all luminaires will soon feature embedded Bluetooth Low Energy radios and sensors. Casambi is poised to lead this transformation as the sole international lighting control platform. Our open ecosystem architecture represents a pioneering leap, surpassing the proprietary legacy systems prevalent in today’s market.”
Mark joined Casambi in February 2022 as the General Manager for North America, bringing a 20-year legacy and reputation in the LED and SSL sectors across 35+ countries in Asia, North and South America, and Europe. With experience managing large organizations and P&Ls of up to $800 million, McClear is well-suited to lead Casambi into its next phase of growth and success.
