The Zigbee Alliance, an organization of hundreds of companies creating, maintaining, and delivering open, global standards for the Internet of Things, announced that John E. Osborne II will transition his role within the Alliance to Chairman Emeritus and Bruno Vulcano of Legrand Group will assume the position of Zigbee Alliance Board Chairman, previously held by Osborne.

Under Osborne's six-year tenure as Board Chairman, the Alliance experienced early financial turnaround, an emergence from market participant to market leader, and the doubling of its Board of Directors and Promoter class, which now includes the world's leaders in smart home, smart building and Internet of Things.

In addition to serving as General Manager, North America for LEEDARSON IoT Technology Inc., he remains involved in the Zigbee Alliance to provide counsel to the incoming Chairman and to ensure a smooth transition throughout the course of 2020.

As former Vice Chair of the Board for six years and an Alliance member for eight years, Bruno Vulcano is well-suited for the Chairman role as the Alliance continues a period of substantial growth and pursues new projects.

"We've been fortunate to have Bruno highly involved in leading Alliance activities for years, and he's the right leader to maintain continuity, oversight and diplomacy across the Board and among stakeholders," continued Richardson.
