Aberdeen International Inc. announced the appointment of Martin Schuermann as Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors of the company. Mr. Schuermann has been involved in the clean energy sector since 2009, serving as Chief Executive Officer of Vision Motor Corp. and Vision Industries (“Vision”), an early innovator in fuel cell vehicles focused on developing zero emission heavy-duty transportation solutions, using hydrogen as the dominant energy storage medium. Vision was the first company in the world to put hydrogen-powered Class 8 trucks through regular duty cycles in the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Prior to and since his time at Vision, Mr. Schuermann has been a serial entrepreneur, notably in the media and film industries. As the Company continues to shape a vision focused on clean energy, Mr. Schuermann’s appointment brings new strategy and governance expertise, adds executive experience directly in the areas of clean transportation and electrification, and bolsters Aberdeen’s deal sourcing and execution capabilities. Mr. Schuermann replaces Stan Bharti as Executive Chairman of the Board. Mr. Bharti will remain a Director of the Company.
