Sweden, </b><b>March 14

Icomera, a world leader
in mobile connectivity solutions, announced today that Karl-Johan
Holm has been appointed President and CEO as of 15th April 2013. Mr.
Holm brings relevant industry experience to his new role after
serving in various senior management positions for the past 20 years.
Roger Sandén, Icomera’s President and CEO until that date, will stay
closely involved through the transition to impart knowledge and
consult as required.
"We
could not have selected a better person for the position," said
Lennart Svantesson, Chairman of Icomera’s board. "Karl-Johan has
leadership talent, experience, and vision in enterprise and I am
convinced that he will lead Icomera to continued success."
Mr.
Sandén will be stepping down to retire to Portugal after three years
as Icomera’s President and CEO during which time he has led the
company to growth of over 140%. "I have
enjoyed my time with Icomera immensely and this was not a decision I
took lightly. I have every confidence in that Icomera will continue
its positive development under the leadership of Karl-Johan."
Mr.
Holm commented "I am excited to be joining a company that
launched the world’s first high speed train passenger WiFi service
and that has gone on to deliver connectivity to many thousands of
vehicles across rail, road and sea and has delivered WiFi to
over 30 million people across all continents. Icomera is ideally
placed to capitalise on a fantastic technology platform and product
base. There is an ever-increasing demand for people all over the
world to be connected to the Internet and for transport operating
companies to be able to manage their fleets in real-time."
