Impinj Promotes Executives and Expands Leadership Team
Internal promotions position Impinj to accelerate growth and capture vast market opportunity.
I am thrilled to share some exciting promotions and additions to Impinj’s leadership team.
First, we promoted Gahan Richardson to executive vice president, focused on executing Impinj’s strategy to address our enormous RAIN market opportunity. In his new role, Gahan will oversee the company’s product roadmap and market and ecosystem development. Impinj’s partners and customers know and respect Gahan from him leading Impinj’s endpoint IC sales team and for his deep knowledge of our market. Gahan joined Impinj in 2017 and we are excited to have him on our executive team.
We also added Alberto Pesavento, a 23-year Impinj veteran and CTO, to our executive team. Alberto joined Impinj in 2001 and has been instrumental in developing our endpoint ICs, readers, gateways and solution algorithms. Alberto leads the technical aspects of the Impinj platform roadmap and solutions development for enterprise customers. We know Alberto will make very strong contributions to our executive team.

Finally, we promoted Christina Balam to senior vice president of human resources. Christina joined Impinj in 2022 to oversee the company’s investment in people and culture, leading programs and processes that support global talent acquisition and employee satisfaction and performance. Christina has developed opportunities for employees to connect and share feedback with leadership, created employee resource groups and advanced Impinj’s DEI efforts. Already a member of our executive team, this promotion is well-deserved.
Heartfelt congratulations and thank you Gahan, Alberto and Christina!
