Highcon has confirmed that its shareholders appointed Amichai Steimberg as Chairman of the Board. Amichai retired in March 2020 as the Chief Executive Officer of Orbotech, a leading global supplier of yield-enhancing and process-enabling solutions for the manufacture of electronics products. In his 28 years there, Amichai worked at all levels of the organization, including as CFO for nine years (2000-2009), and COO and President for 10 years (2009-2019). From February 2019 until his retirement, Amichai led Orbotech through its acquisition by KLA.
Shlomo Nimrodi, Highcon CEO said, “I am pleased to welcome Amichai to our Board of Directors and look forward to his insights from 30 years of experience across many disciplines, including strategy and finance, to propel Highcon forward. The continued commitment of our Board especially in these uncertain times has been greatly appreciated and we intend to keep delivering on the proven promise of our revolutionary technology.”
