Former Kynetec COO Walker to Lead Growth for Redslim

Redslim, a data integration and business intelligence firm based in Switzerland, has appointed Paul Walker as Chief Growth Officer.

The company helps clients in the CPG and consumer healthcare sectors across more than 55 countries realize the full ROI of their market data, bringing together unstructured and fragmented data and transforming it into ready-to-use data sets, for insights on commercial performance, market shares, marketing, innovation and pricing. In July the company announced that Kantar would be using its SPRINT BI front-end for consuming fragmented datasets to help bring enhance insights from WorldpanelPlus. A majority of Redslim was acquired in November by European private equity firm Astorg, and the firm says it now plans to expand into new regions and use cases.

Walker (pictured) will help drive this growth strategy as part of its Executive Committee, having served as an advisor to the Board for the past few years. His experience includes executive positions across the US, Latin America and APAC, including work as an MD at Nielsen and COO at Kynetec.

Redslim Co-CEO Eric Bensimon comments: 'We are excited to welcome Paul as our Chief Growth Officer. His wealth of experience and forward-thinking approach will be crucial in shaping our next chapter'.
