Proximie, the global health technology platform digitizing operating rooms (OR)

impressive start to 2022.

Charlie H. Wilhelm joins as General Manager for the Americas, bringing vast 
industry experience and expertise. Most recently, Charlie was the President and

driving the Company's growth opportunities with new products, services, and 
verticals. Previously, Dave was the Global Head of Digital Solutions for 
Johnson & Johnson Medtech, as well as CEO of SaaS company C-SATS. He was also a 
member of the founding leadership team at Verb Surgical, before the company was 
acquired by Johnson & Johnson in early 2020. Dave brings over 20 years of 
business leadership in healthcare.

The appointments follow Proximie's high-profile partnership with Teledoc Health 
in October 2021, and Vodafone Business, announced in January 2022 aimed at 
increasing access to surgical healthcare and training.
