Welcoming Michael Harden, Vice President of Systems

We're excited to welcome Michael Harden as Vice President of Systems to lead the growth of our systems business unit from our LA office.

Last year, as part of a new strategic goal to enhance systems capabilities and to add US-based manufacturing, we acquired California based Philips Aerospace. This marked an evolution of our business model beyond computer processing and plug-in cards, towards embracing tailored boards that can be integrated as part of broader systems.

Close to prime defence contractors, US-based operations are a key part of our future growth. Michael’s appointment further underlines our commitment to this. Michael brings with him 35 years of senior leadership experience in the aerospace and defence industries and was most recently a General Manager at Teledyne Defense Electronics. His prior roles include COO of Atlas Speciality Products, and Vice President/General Manager of Esterline Engineered Materials. He also holds multiple degrees from Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas. Michael brings extensive strategic and tactical experience in both sales and marketing and manufacturing operations and is well-equipped to help power the further growth of our systems business.

Miles Adcock, CEO of Concurrent Technologies, commented: “We are thrilled to welcome Michael to Concurrent Technologies at an exciting time for the business, particularly for our growing systems division in the United States. “I am confident that we will immediately benefit from his extensive background in the industry and that his skills will be hugely complimentary to our existing team. I look forward to watching Michael’s contribution as we continue to broaden our market in the United States and secure new contract wins.”
