Workplace analytics solution Locatee has appointed both Myriam Locher, chief revenue officer and Benedikt Köppel, co-founder and CTO as CEOs. Thomas Kessler has stepped down from his CEO position to focus on his role as a member of the Locatee board of directors providing market insight, expertise and thought leadership in the workplace technology market.
This is one of a number of key changes to Locatee’s leadership team to fully seize the current opportunity in the accelerating workplace analytics market, the company said. With companies across the globe having started to work more flexibly and returning to the office, the demand for workplace occupancy data is higher and more strategically important than ever.
Locatee’s workplace analytics platform unifies various technologies and data sources to provide visibility on office usage and occupancy to workplace leaders worldwide. Locatee’s solution allows workplace leaders to better manage their built environment, allocate space judiciously, improve the employee experience and develop a sustainable workplace strategy, the company said.
“The next stage for Locatee needs heightened focus from the company’s leadership, and together with the board, we decided that Myriam and I should take over executive duties,” said Köppel. “I am proud to have brought this vision to this stage together with my co-founder, and I am thankful to Thomas for his leadership and friendship along the way.”
Kessler led the creation of Locatee together with Köppel.
Köppel incorporated Locatee together with Kessler in 2015. Locher joined after several successful entrepreneurial experiences. As co-CEOs, Myriam Locher and Benedikt Köppel combine their product and revenue expertise.
