Former Best Buy CEO Brad Anderson joins Spacee advisory board

Spacee, a US-based startup which provides computer vision and AI solutions for businesses, has added Bradbury “Brad” Anderson, the former Best Buy CEO and Vice Chairman, to its advisory board.

Anderson retired from Best Buy in 2009 after 36 years with the company.

He started as a salesperson for Sound of Music, a small chain of stereo stores that were the precursor to Best Buy, and worked his way up to CEO in 2002.

He was introduced to the Spacee team via a mutual friend in the Dallas area. “When I met the Spacee team, I was immediately impressed by what they were doing,” he says.

“The company is tackling major issues for retailers that are critically important – issues such as drawing shoppers into stores, engaging them during the shopping experience, and better tracking inventory.”

“I’m fascinated by the innovative work they’re doing, and excited to work alongside Skip and team to help get Spacee technology into more stores.”

“We feel so fortunate to have someone of Brad’s calibre on our advisory board,” says Skip Howard, Founder and CEO, Spacee, whose clients include Walmart, Panasonic, and Coca-Cola.

“Brad has had a front row seat for the evolution of retail technology, and brings decades of experience and a fresh new perspective on the current challenges facing retailers.”

“From the very start when we were introduced, he made it clear that he had some fantastic ideas to help Spacee grow. We’re thrilled to have him.”
