Dignard further added that his expanded role will enable him to further strengthen ties with solutions, employees and partners in Europe and South America, promoting collaboration and knowledge sharing across regions.

"Many of the challenges and opportunities we face in our key vertical markets in North America are shared across the Atlantic region. Leveraging our domain expertise will help us accelerate our components-to-solutions strategy in a more unified and impactful way for both our customers and partners," he said.

Macnica Representative Director and Vice President Akinobu Miyoshi said: "Sebastian has successfully led organizations in a phase of growth and transformation throughout his career and his contributions to Macnica Americas over the past two years, building a robust team, a trusted partner ecosystem, and a differentiated solution strategy. As Macnica continues to invest in North America and the Atlantic region, his leadership, supported by headquarters and teams across Asia, will play a key role in expanding growth momentum across the Americas and Europe, aligning regional execution with global vision and long-term growth goals."
