Phase One announces leadership transition After more than two decades at the helm, Henrik Håkonsson has decided to step down as CEO of Phase One and will continue to contribute as a member of the Board of Directors. Henrik has been instrumental in shaping both Phase One and Capture One – today two standalone companies – into global leaders, and his deep knowledge and passion will continue to benefit the company in this new role. Reflecting on the transition, Henrik says: “It has been a privilege to lead Phase One on this journey. I am immensely proud of what we have achieved together, and I am confident that Arne, with his experience and vision, will continue to build new success. I look forward to supporting the company in my new role on the Board.” From 1 September, Phase One welcomes Arne Dehn as the new CEO. Arne brings strong international experience from leading technology businesses through growth and transformation, most recently as CEO of STEMMER IMAGING. His customer focus, strategic insight and global outlook position him well to lead Phase One into its next chapter of global growth. “Phase One is renowned for its innovation and excellence in imaging. I am excited to join this talented team and to continue driving value for our customers worldwide, while building on the strong market position established under Henrik’s leadership,” says Arne Dehn. We are also welcoming Casper Jensen as the new Chairman of the Board. With deep leadership experience from Thrane & Thrane, Cobham and, currently, as CEO of Danelec, Casper has a proven track record in building and transforming technology companies and will provide strong leadership as Chairman of the Phase One Board.    Our majority owner, Axcel, highlights the importance of this transition:   “Arne is an excellent match for Phase One with the right capabilities to further strengthen the company's position in the premium imaging market and drive future growth. We are equally pleased to welcome Casper as Chairman and look forward to benefitting from his strong tech track record. And not least, we all owe a big thank you to Henrik for his enormous contribution to Phase One and Capture One over the past two decades – I am thrilled we will continue our close collaboration on the board,” says Co-Managing Partner Christian Bamberger Bro.

I have shared my thoughts with Computerworld Danmark on employee retention and how we at KMD create a place people want to stay.   More and more colleagues choose to continue their journey with us, and that brings stability to the benefit of our teams and customers. Together with new talent who add fresh perspectives, this balance enables us to develop IT solutions that make a real difference in society.   One reason colleagues choose to stay is that we actively listen. Every single week, we ask our 2,800 employees how they're doing and what we can do to improve their wellbeing and motivation. This gives leaders early insights that make it possible to address issues before they turn into reasons for leaving.   Some colleagues will still move on to new challenges. That is a natural part of a dynamic labor market. We make sure to part on good terms and to learn from every transition.

“The next generation expects action from us today. Technology and collaboration will help us overcome many of the challenges we are facing.” HRH Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden shared this powerful message during the Sustainability Summit organised by Business Sweden at #EXPO2025Osaka. I had the opportunity to speak in two panel discussions, and these were my key takeaways: 🔄 Circularity • Collaboration across sectors, harmonised standards and the removal of policy barriers are essential. • Affordability and sustainability must go hand in hand, making products and services easy, desirable and good value so circular behaviours become the norm. 🚗 Mobility • Integrated policies, charging infrastructure and renewable energy are needed to power the shift • Cross-border collaboration and a “smorgasbord” of localised solutions are vital to meeting global goals 🤝 What stayed with me most was the spirit of partnership between #Japanese and #Swedish business leaders and policymakers, including Sweden’s Minister for Public Administration Erik Slottner, Christian Levin (Scania Group), Nina Altarac (Axis Communications), Marie Trogstam (Confederation of Swedish Enterprise), Thomas Hörnfeldt (SSAB), and Yasunori Takeuchi Corporate Action Japan (CAJ), and many more! The willingness to learn, adapt and co-create solutions across borders is exactly what this decade demands. And on a personal note, seeing IKEA products on stage and hearing our fantastic moderator Märtha Rehnberg refer to #IngvarKamprad 's invention of flatpack to inspire others to entertain “ridiculous ideas” was a proud IKEA moment 😉 #EXPO2025Osaka #PioneerThePossible #SwedenJapanSustainabilitySummit IKEA Ingka Group Petra Färe Yu Yabe
