Altira Group Praises Anton Chilton's Board Appointment at Seeq

On September 9, 2025, Altira Group LLC, a prominent venture capital firm specializing in innovative industrial technology, expressed its congratulations to Seeq Corporation on the recent appointment of Anton Chilton to its Board of Directors. This significant event marks a new chapter in Seeq's journey toward leveraging advanced analytics in industrial sectors.

Anton Chilton is well-regarded for his extensive experience in technology leadership spanning over three decades. Formerly the CEO of QAD Inc., he successfully led the company through a transformative phase, shifting its operations to a Software as a Service (SaaS) model and steering strategic acquisitions. His tenure at QAD included pivotal moments, culminating in a remarkable take-private transaction with Thoma Bravo in 2021, which showcased his aptitude for navigating complex business landscapes.

J.P. Bauman, a Partner at Altira and a current member of the Seeq Board, noted, "Anton has a proven record of guiding companies through growth and transformation. His insights are expected to be tremendously beneficial as Seeq advances its global presence and spearheads the adoption of AI-driven industrial analytics. Aligning technology innovation with customer needs is crucial for Seeq's next growth phase, and Anton's background is perfectly suited for this challenge."

Chilton's appointment fills the vacancy left by Ashley Kramer, who resigned in July 2025 to join OpenAI as its Chief Revenue Leader. Altira extends its sincere appreciation to Kramer for her valuable contributions during her tenure, which substantially helped shape Seeq's progression.
