On the occasion of his retirement, Esko honored Simon James for his contribution to Esko and to the packaging industry as a whole. James was one of the founders of ArtiosCAD, which is celebrating its 15th anniversary and has become the leading structural design software for various types of packaging and displays. Having sold his company, Artios, to Barco in 1998, he held a variety of leadership positions with Barco and later Esko. "For many years Simon has been instrumental in the growth and strategic development of Esko, and the company has very much to thank him for," notes Carsten Knudsen, Esko CEO and president. "Also his influence in the packaging industry cannot be underestimated. We are grateful that we had the honor to work with Simon, and will miss his unique insights and warm friendship."
