Ekspla, Lithuania’s first laser production company, turns thirty this year. During its three decades in business, the company has been known for consistent growth and now, as Ekspla’s CEO Kęstutis Jasiūnas affirmed, the time has come to make some changes which will be quite considerable over the next few years.
Explaining the reasoning behind the decision to transfer the helm of the company, he stated: “Our strategic focus on femtosecond solutions has helped us develop new technologies, products, discover new buyers, and expand our manufacturing business. The growing market of original equipment manufacturers demands human resources just as it calls for additional management resources as well as the ability to adapt to the rapidly changing environment. That is why, as of next year, I will be focusing on the strategic development of our company and the work on the board. Aldas Juronis will be taking over the company’s reigns.”
Juronis started his career at the company four years ago as supervisor of the OEM laser program, his team turned ideas into final industry-ready solutions. Last year, he became head of the laser manufacturing department.
He has acquired more than twenty years of business experience: Juronis has supervised large departments in the aviation business as well as running his own company. The management of Ekspla’s manufacturing unit will be taken over by Ingrida Navickienė.
