Locatee, the leading workplace analytics solution providing industry leaders with critical data-based insights, is excited to announce the two new appointed CEOs, Myriam Locher, Chief Revenue Officer and Benedikt Köppel, co-founder and CTO. 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. 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 has been pioneering and playing a key role in the workplace transformation the last few years by establishing new, data-driven norms in the management and development of workplace performance. Its workplace analytics platform unifies various technologies and data sources to provide visibility on office usage and occupancy to workplace leaders worldwide. The scale, depth and richness of the data generated by 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 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.”
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. Kessler led the creation of Locatee together with Benedikt Köppel, and has guided the company with a sound vision during the last seven year through the early stages towards growth.
Köppel and Locher, stepped up as co-CEOs of the company. Köppel incorporated Locatee together with Kessler in 2015, and has strongly contributed to leading Locatee to its current leading position in the market. Locher joined after several successful entrepreneurial experiences to bring executive excellence to the company and imprint customer obsession to Locatee’s operations. As co-CEOs, Myriam Locher and Benedikt Köppel combine their product and revenue expertise. They steer Locatee to serve its global customer base following key principles: providing new, innovative, technology solutions to cater to a growing demand for workplace solutions, thereby positioning the company to stand out to investors in the proptech market.
