Diogo Quental will be taking on the role of global CEO in the new year.
3D printing company, Raise3D has announced that Diogo Quental will be taking on the role of global CEO in the new year.
From January 1st 2018, Diogo will succeed the company’s current CEO and co-founder, Edward Feng, who will be dedicating his time to the coordination of the newly created Strategic Committee which will engage closely with partners and investors to support the company’s global scale-up.
“This is the perfect time for Raise3D to do this change. We are proud for what we achieved so far with the current level of organisation, but we needed a different type of governance to scale up the full operation”, said Raise3D CEO Edward Feng. “Our decision was to make a clear separation between the on-going operation that will be managed by Diogo, and the strategic direction of the company which will be coordinated by me.”
Diogo first entered the 3D printing industry in 2011 and has over 25 years of experience in several different countries and cultures, structuring new businesses, managing people, and projects. Back in September, Diogo joined Raise3D as VP for strategy, Partnerships, and International Business Development.
“Despite having joined Raise3D only a few months ago, the experience of belonging to this team is one of the most rewarding I ever had. Three global offices, in three very different cultures, with amazingly talented teams contribute to the goal of raising the standards”, said Diogo Quental. “I am very honoured with this new position and I do feel the responsibility of it. But I also know that there’s a long road of improvements ahead and that more comprehensive solutions still have to be offered to corporate customers.”
