WideOrbit has announced the promotion of President and Managing Director Susie Hedrick to CEO for the company.
Hedrick will replace founder Eric Mathewson who is departing the role. She previously served as the CEO of vCreative before joining WideOrbit last year.
“I’m honored to become WideOrbit’s CEO. Eric and our incredible team at WideOrbit have built a strong foundation,” the new CEO said. “I’m excited to continue that work, strengthening customer relationships and delivering value through innovative technology.”
Mathewson, who is transitioning to a “strategic role” on the Board of Directors for Lumine Group Inc. — which bought WideOrbit in 2023, believes Susie Hedrick is the correct choice to replace him.
“I am thrilled to see Susie Hedrick step into the role of CEO. She has been a vital part of our leadership team, earning the trust and confidence of the WideOrbit team and our customers. WideOrbit is very well positioned for the future with a great team and an innovative set of products that will help drive client revenues and profit,” said Mathewson.
“I am confident that under Susie’s guidance, WideOrbit will continue to thrive and innovate, and I look forward to following WideOrbit’s accomplishments for many years into the future.”
