World-leading flat panel satellite antenna company Kymeta (www.kymetacorp.com) announced today leadership and board changes as the company continues to build on its innovative technology and first-to-market products. This has been an orderly collaborative process to support existing leadership retirements.

Bergman also served as President and CEO of Synaptics (SYNA) during their high growth phase from 2011 to 2019. His distinguished career includes steering organizations towards capitalizing on market opportunities with innovative technologies, leading to sustained market growth.
“Kymeta stands as a technology and market leader supported by the strength of a highly capable global team,” said Rick. “Guided by a dedication to customers, innovation, and the delivery of top-notch products, Kymeta is well-positioned for advancing global broadband communications.”

Effective March 31, 2024, Doug Hutcheson and Walter Berger are retiring from Kymeta. Throughout the last five years, their pivotal contributions have played a central role in spearheading numerous product launches and consistently fostering year-over-year growth. Their grasp of customer needs, commitment to innovation, and successful introduction of new products to the market have resulted in record-breaking achievements. They are committed to a transition of responsibilities to Rick.
Nicole added: “Our sincere gratitude goes to Doug and Walter for their unwavering commitment to Kymeta over the years. Doug and Walter have successfully laid the groundwork for Kymeta's future growth. Their departure leaves the company strategically positioned for a robust future.”
