Title: Håkan Persson to retire as Tormek AB CEO
Post by: Ken S on March 29, 2023, 09:15:15 PM
I received an email from Håkan Persson today. After seventeen years of service with Tormek, Håkan will be retiring as CEO of Tormek. Håkan is a highly respected expert with superabrasives (diamond and CBN). I am sure Håkan was the leader in Tormek moving from the traditional Super Grind wheel to a choice of six wheels, including three diamond wheels. Håkan worked with Sebastien during one of the online classes covering diamond wheels. Here is a link:

Fortunately, Håkan will remain a Senior Advisor with Tormek. All of his wealth of lifelong experience and expertise will not be lost. The day to day operations will be taken over by Samuel Stenhem, who has been Tormek's Marketing Director for the last five years. Here is a link to an online class he did with Sebastien covering the T1:

Samuel is a member of the T1 design team. I look forward to the future of Tormek with Samuel at the helm.
