About Imbera
Imbera Electronics develops and licenses Integrated Module Board technology that enables the integration of both discrete active and passive components inside a printed circuit board structure.
The technology aims to further miniaturize electronic products with improved electrical performance at a competitive overall cost level. The initial technology adoption is aimed at handheld and telecom applications, but the technology has potential in all electronics manufacturing.
The Role
The Imbera management team have a great technical pedigree and had achieved initial commercial traction with tier one manufacturers and OEMs. The Board required an experienced CEO to join the team to develop the business plan and drive commercial execution. We were looking for experience of packaging, the wireless OEMS, manufacturing processes and/or ip licensing. The search had to be global and generate candidates from around the world.
Client Feedback
Gillamor Stephens came highly recommended by VCs in our syndicate.
We needed a search partner that would evangelise Imbera and generate a high quality shortlist. From the very beginning of the project we were impressed, with weekly assignment review calls so that we could clearly see the progress being made. They delivered a truly international search with candidates based in Asia and the US, as well as Europe. The candidates were extremely well briefed and exhibited a genuine enthusiasm for Helsinki –based Imbera, meaning we were able to choose from an excellent short-list of candidates and we hired our preferred choice.
We were so impressed with the work of the Gillamor Stephens team that my colleague has also just worked with them to hire a CEO for another Northzone portfolio company.
Bjørn Stray, Chairman of Imbera and Partner of Northzone Ventures
