Innventure names Dr. Bill Grieco as CEO, replacing retiring Bill Haskell

Innventure, Inc. (NASDAQ: INV) announced that its Board of Directors has appointed Dr. Bill Grieco as Chief Executive Officer, effective October 1, 2026, according to a company press release.

Dr. Grieco will succeed Bill Haskell, who is retiring after more than 45 years in his career, including six years as Innventure's CEO. Haskell will work with Dr. Grieco over the next three months to support the transition.

The appointment followed a succession planning and search process led by a subcommittee of Innventure's Board, conducted with the assistance of an executive search firm that evaluated internal and external candidates.

Dr. Grieco currently serves as founding CEO of Refinity, one of Innventure's operating companies, and as a board member of both Refinity and Accelsius. He previously served as Innventure's Chief Technology Officer from 2022 to 2024. Prior to joining Innventure, he was CEO of The RAPID Manufacturing Institute and led research and development for the $3 billion Building Materials Group at Owens Corning.

Dr. Grieco holds a PhD and master's degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a bachelor's degree from the Georgia Institute of Technology, all in Chemical Engineering.

Upon assuming the CEO role, Dr. Grieco will join Innventure's executive committee and fill the board vacancy created by Haskell's planned retirement. He will continue to serve on the boards of Accelsius and Refinity until a successor CEO for Refinity is identified. Innventure and Refinity are currently working with an executive search firm to find that successor.
