Bell and Howell Names Arthur Bergens as President and Chief Executive Officer

Retiring CEO, Larry Blue, was instrumental in evolving Bell and Howell into a premier automation service leader.

DURHAM, N.C., October 3^rd, 2022 – Bell and Howell today announced that Arthur Bergens has been named President and Chief Executive Officer of the Durham, North Carolina-based company.

This executive leadership change comes as the result of the retirement of former CEO, Larry Blue, who joined the company in 2014 as Chief Operating Officer and in December 2018 became CEO. Blue spent much of his time evolving and propelling the company into a stronger, more diverse technology-based solutions innovator. His focus on digital transformation helped launch Bell and Howell’s state-of-the-art data analytics platform, as well as its remote monitoring services.

Arthur Bergens, who joined the company as CFO in early 2014, has successfully led the company’s financial, operational, and M&A strategies which allowed the transformation of the company to its current strategy. He utilizes decades of global leadership experience across a diverse group of private and publicly held companies, having redesigned strategies and strengthened organizations to achieve their goals and exceed challenging benchmarks. This leadership transition will continue to focus on Bell and Howell’s position as a leading provider of cutting-edge solutions that empower businesses to employ advanced services and technologies that support their strategies, grow operational efficiencies, and enhance the end customer experience.

Bergens is also a recipient of multiple awards including a two-time winner of the Triangle Business Journal’s CFO of the Year.
