QUEBEC CITY, March 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UgoWork™, a lithium-ion energy solutions provider specializing in the material handling industry, today announced the appointment of David Mucciacciaro as Chief Executive Officer, effective March 2, 2026.

At the crossroads of my focus, I met David and it was eye opening,” said Philippe Beauchamp, former CEO at UgoWork. “On top of his outstanding personality and grit, David was a perfect fit for our team and ambitions. Coming from a global public company, his relevant experience matched perfectly with our founding vision: scale the best technology with discipline and excellence.”
“I am deeply honored to join UgoWork at such an exciting moment in its journey,” said David Mucciacciaro. “What stood out immediately was the strength of the team, the quality of the technology, and the ambition of the founders and Board for what this company can become. UgoWork has built a differentiated platform addressing a major shift in how industrial fleets are powered. I look forward to working alongside the team, our customers, and our investors to accelerate commercialization and scale the impact of UgoWork’s solutions.”
UgoWork will be at MODEX 2026 in Atlanta from April 13–16 in booth C11983 to meet customers and partners and share what’s next.
