Technostrobe, a manufacturer of obstruction lighting systems for marine and air navigation, announced the appointment of Francis Lacombe as the Company's president. Lacombe, who has been vice president of Technostrobe since 2008, will take over from the company's founder, Guy Buisson, who will be retiring in June 2021. He will also acquire company shares held by Buisson to become the sole owner.

In addition to his new duties, Lacombe will retain responsibility for business development. The new leadership will seek to ensure continuity of the company's business strategy and its sustainability.

In order to maintain the necessary level of technical expertise within the senior management team, Technostrobe has recruited a new vice-president of operations, Guy Beauséjour, who joined the company at the beginning of January 2021. Beauséjour will be responsible for a number of improvement projects, including new products and software currently under development or to be introduced over the next few years.

Lacombe said, "I am proud of Technostrobe's many achievements; this SME, set up by the founder in his basement 20 years ago, has now become a leader in obstruction lighting. I feel proud and humbled to be taking over from Guy Buisson and grateful for the commitment and trust he has shown over the years. I am delighted to assume leadership of a company so well-placed to realize its ambitious vision and to have the support of a team of loyal and experienced colleagues."

Buisson founded Technostrobe in 2001, and in 2018 the company acquired a majority interest in ITO Navaids, a Dutch company specializing in marine navigation aids.

Technostrobe is active in several promising market segments, including the offshore wind power market which is enjoying strong growth in Europe, the US and other regions. The company is optimistic about its future prospects and is committed to a well-considered, ambitious growth strategy so it can exploit opportunities that may arise over the coming months.
