Dynabook Americas Inc. has announced the appointment of Mike Marusic, who also serves as president and CEO of Sharp Imaging and Information Company of America, as its new president, effective Oct. 1.

Marusic succeeds Ikuaki Takayama, who has stepped down as chairman and president of Dynabook Americas after overseeing the business since Sharp acquired the Dynabook laptop business in 2019. During his tenure, Takayama played a critical role in guiding the company's transformation and maintaining Dynabook as a leading provider of long-lasting, high-performance laptops for enterprise and business users.

With more than 25 years of experience in the office solutions, printing and computer peripheral businesses, Marusic brings a wealth of knowledge to Dynabook Americas. He joined Sharp in 2002 and has held various senior leadership roles, including COO of Sharp Electronics Corp. and executive vice president of marketing, operations and technical services for Sharp's B2B division. Marusic's deep understanding of product development and market expansion will support Dynabook in further refining its B2B sales strategy and strengthening its position in the competitive laptop market.

Marusic holds an MBA from Fordham University and a bachelor of arts from Siena College. He will oversee all aspects of Dynabook's operations in the Americas, ensuring the company continues to meet the needs of its growing network of dealers and customers.
