NIJMEGEN, Netherlands, April 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — ScreenPoint Medical, today announced a significant transition in its leadership as Mark Koeniguer, the current CEO, steps down from his position.

The company’s Board of Directors has appointed Pieter Kroese as the new Chief Executive Officer effective April 25, 2024.

“I am thrilled to lead ScreenPoint into its next phase of growth and innovation,” said Mr. Kroese. “I am deeply committed to building upon the strong foundation we have and continuing to work closely with our talented team to drive continued success. We are already expanding screening capacity and capability through proven reader support – we look forward to increasing our ability to support providers and women moving forward.”

We continue to see these results from clinical sites all over the world, including many here in the United States. No other Breast AI solution has demonstrated the same results as Transpara, and I am confident that the team will continue to push on these frontiers under Pieter’s leadership.”
The entire team at ScreenPoint extends its gratitude to Mark Koeniguer and wishes him every success in the future, while warmly welcoming Pieter Kroese into his new role as CEO.

Key Market Drivers
Increasing Demand for Automation
Surge of Automation is Supporting Growth of Robotics Industry
The industrial sector is generating high revenues for the global robotics market owing to extensive automation in manufacturing, which increases productivity and lowers overall production costs. Assembly line, painting, and welding robots have become essential, thereby propelling substantial market expansion in the automotive, electronics, and heavy duty sectors. Due to the increased usage of robots for non-manufacturing functions such as customer service, shipping, and healthcare, the services sector is expanding quickly. This rapid growth is being driven by technological improvements and the push for automation in services.
Surge in Advance Robotics is Bolstering Market Growth
The use of robotics in manufacturing processes is growing, and innovation in this field is happening quickly worldwide. By increasing productivity, efficiency, and precision, advanced robotics technologies—such as AI-driven automation systems and collaborative robots, or cobots—are transforming the manufacturing sector. The dominance of manufacturing in the worldwide robotics market is fuelled by the integration of robotics into manufacturing facilities, which helps businesses remain competitive in today’s dynamic market scenario.
Rising Interest in Service Robotics is Driving Demand for Robotics in Asia Pacific
Due to the strong demand for industrial and service robots in the region, Asia Pacific now leads the global robotics industry. China, Japan, and South Korea are among the nations that have made significant investments in the robotics sector recently. The Middle East and Africa are anticipated to register the fastest-growing rate for the global robotics market. The expansion is ascribed to the region’s growing adoption of automation technology, especially in the manufacturing and logistics industries.
