Wallbox, a leading global provider of electric vehicle (EV) charging and energy management solutions based in Barcelona, Spain, has announced the appointment of Luis Boada as its Chief Financial Officer, effective May 15, 2024. Boada brings nearly two decades of experience in corporate development, finance, and investor relations, with a deep understanding of both North American and European markets.
Prior to joining Wallbox, Boada served as the CFO of North America at Fluidra, a global provider of pool equipment and connected solutions. His extensive background in financial leadership roles positions him well to contribute to Wallbox's growth and strategic initiatives.
The announcement of Boada's appointment coincides with several key commercial developments for Wallbox. The company recently disclosed a minority investment and plans for commercial collaboration with Generac. Additionally, Wallbox has officially launched and commissioned its DC fast charger, Supernova 180, in North America. Furthermore, the company has expanded its presence in North America by entering commercial and shared space charging with the launch of Pulsar Pro. Moreover, Wallbox continues to advance its product and innovation integrations with ABL, a German pioneer in manufacturing and EV charging, which Wallbox recently acquired.
In addition to Boada's appointment, Wallbox has proposed the appointment of Jordi Lainz as a member of the board of directors during the upcoming 2024 Annual General Meeting of shareholders. This proposed appointment reflects Wallbox's commitment to strengthening its leadership team and governance structure to support its continued growth and success in the EV charging market.
Wallbox's strategic initiatives, coupled with the appointment of Boada as CFO and the proposed addition of Lainz to the board of directors, underscore the company's dedication to innovation and expansion in the rapidly evolving EV charging industry.
As Wallbox continues to make significant strides in advancing EV charging technology and expanding its market reach, Boada's financial expertise and Lainz's potential board membership are poised to play integral roles in driving the company's success in the coming years.
With a focus on delivering cutting-edge EV charging solutions and driving sustainability efforts worldwide, Wallbox remains at the forefront of shaping the future of transportation and energy management.
