Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V. (“FCA”)
(NYSE:FCAU / MTA:FCA) announces that Paolo Carmassi has been
appointed Chief Executive Officer of Comau (“Comau” or “the
Company”) in preparation for its future as one of the world’s
leading global providers of Industry 4.0 enabling systems, products
and services and its stock market listing. Alessandro Nasi will
become the Company’s Chairman.
Mr. Carmassi joins Comau with significant
experience in global high-technology business management. For the
past four years, he has led Malvern Panalytical Ltd. (a Spectris
company), a major provider of scientific instrumentation for
materials analysis. Previously, he was head of the Aerospace
business in EMEA for Honeywell, where he spent 23 years holding a
series of positions of increasing leadership responsibility, in
both the automotive and aerospace sectors.
Headquartered in Turin, Italy, Comau is a world
leader in industrial automation for the automotive industry for
which it provides joining, assembly and machining solutions for
both traditional and electric vehicles, and robotized manufacturing
including wearable robotics. The Company also offers specialist
project management and consultancy services, maintenance and
training, and operates through an international network of 7
innovation centers, 5 digital hubs, 8 production plants, employing
over 9,000 people in 14 countries.
Comau’s experience and expertise are clearly
applicable to general industry and so it is well-placed to develop
its business by supporting clients in new sectors as they
transition to an industry 4.0 world. This will see processes and
products re-imagined to capture the opportunities presented by
developments such as the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT),
Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), Artificial Intelligence (AI) and
Virtual and Augmented Reality..
Alessandro Nasi joined the Fiat Group in 2005,
having begun his career working in banking and finance. He
has held senior roles at Fiat Powertrain Technologies, the Engine
and Powertrain division of Fiat Group and CNH Industrial, which
manufactures agricultural machinery and construction equipment,
where he serves as a member of the Board and is also Chairman of
Iveco Defence Vehicles. He is also member of the Board of EXOR.
As previously announced by FCA on 18 December
2019, shortly following the merger of FCA and Groupe PSA, the
shareholding in Comau will be distributed for the benefit of the
shareholders of the newly merged company.
Commenting on the appointments, Mike Manley,
Chief Executive Officer of FCA said:
“The appointments of Alessandro Nasi and Paolo
Carmassi are a significant step forward for Comau as it prepares
for life as a public company. We’re particularly delighted to
welcome Paolo who brings with him a wealth of relevant experience
to take Comau into a new phase of its development as a trusted
partner helping businesses capture the opportunities of Industry
4.0.”
