PERSONA AI ANNOUNCES MICHAEL PERRY AS HEAD OF COMMERCIAL STRATEGY

HOUSTON, March 11 (Bernama) -- Persona AI, an emerging  leader in humanoids being purpose-built for heavy industry, today announced the appointment of Michael Perry as Head of Commercial Strategy. The hire signals Persona’s shift toward commercial deployment, as the company builds the commercial infrastructure to bring humanoid automation to markets like shipyards, steel mills, offshore platforms, and construction sites worldwide.

Perry joins as industrial enterprises face an urgent and accelerating challenge: a structural shortage of capacity for welding, fabrication, and heavy maintenance in dynamic environments,  precisely the high-value, high-risk tasks where humanoid robots can deliver the greatest impact. His appointment comes on the heels of Persona’s agreements with both HD Hyundai and POSCO Group to advance humanoid automation in shipyards and steel manufacturing and a pilot programme with the state of Louisiana targeting active heavy-industry environments.
