STOCKHOLM, May 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — SciBase Holding AB (“SciBase”) (STO: SCIB), a leading developer of augmented intelligence-based solutions for skin disorders hereby clarifies the May 15th announcement that Simon Grant will leave his position as CEO for personal reasons. Simon will transition out of his role over the next six months but will remain formally as CEO during this time. Simon Grant will also remain available to the Board in a consulting capacity after the end of the planned transition time.
The Board has initiated the process to recruit a new CEO and will provide an update in due course. Tord Lendau, chairman of the board of SciBase, will take over certain operational parts of the role of CEO during the transition period as Simon Grant will gradually reduce his involvement. As chairman of the board, Tord is responsible for driving the process of finding a new CEO and will work to ensure a smooth transition.
“We thank Simon for his efforts as Managing Director at SciBase. During his nine years as CEO, SciBase has transitioned from being a research-oriented company to a commercial stage company with products approved and marketed in the US, Europe and Australia. Obtaining the PMA for Nevisense in the US in 2017 and being able to subsequently secure Medicare reimbursement earlier this year, was the culmination of Simon’s efforts to bring the company’s technologies to the market and to the benefit of patients worldwide. We wish Simon all the best in his future endeavors and it is positive that he will remain available to assist the board even after ending his role as CEO. I will step into an operational role and support the CEO to manage the transition as smoothly as possible. While it is disappointing to see Simon leave, we can also see this as an opportunity to optimize the organization as we leverage our platform to further accelerate our growth, especially in the US,” says Tord Lendau Chairman of the Board at SciBase.
The Company has made significant progress in navigating challenging regulatory processes and market environments and has reached profitability in Germany through growing sales of Nevisense and electrodes. SciBase has also recently made significant progress with Medicare reimbursement and market penetration in the US and Nevisense remains the only melanoma detection product available in the US. The foundation for further growth has been laid.
