Tegra Medical promotes Bob Roche to Chief Executive Officer

FRANKLIN, MA--Tegra Medical is pleased to announce that Bob Roche has been named CEO of the company, in addition to his current duties as President. Gerald Mazzenga, the current CEO, will be relinquishing his duties as CEO to focus his energies exclusively on his role as Director and Chief Technical Officer.

“Bob is a tireless performer, always working in the best interest of customers and employees alike,” said Mazzenga. “We have worked closely together for seven years, and the time is right to transition the CEO position to Bob. I will continue to provide counsel and participate on the board of directors, but I will have more time to engage in technology assessment and development at Tegra where my true passion resides.”

“I’m pleased to take on this added responsibility and will continue to execute on our vision to establish Tegra Medical as a leading supplier to the medical device community,” commented Bob Roche. “I’ve enjoyed a wonderful working relationship with Jerry as well as Riverside Partners and expect this change to be seamless to customers and employees. We’ll continue to invest in people and capabilities to bring more value to our customers through innovation, speed and great customer service.”
