    Teleflex Incorporated, a global provider of medical technologies for critical care and surgery, announced today that Benson Smith will retire from his position as CEO, effective on December 31, 2017. Smith, a Teleflex Board member since 2005, will continue to serve as Teleflex’s Chairman of the Board. He has been nominated by Teleflex’s Board of Directors to serve for another three year term if elected by Teleflex’s stockholders at the 2017 annual meeting to be held in May, 2017.
     

    Benson Smith
    “I want to thank the Board of Directors, along with all of our employees and shareholders, for the opportunity to serve on the executive management team at Teleflex,” said Smith. “When I began my tenure as CEO in 2011, Teleflex was completing its transition from a diversified industrial company, and I’m proud that in less than a decade we have been able to successfully grow into our current position as a leading global provider of medical devices. I have tremendous confidence in my colleague, Liam Kelly, and the talented executives that we have been able to attract and develop at Teleflex, and I look forward to Teleflex’s continued success under Liam’s leadership and strategic guidance.”
     
    Liam Kelly, who currently serves as Teleflex’s president and COO, has been named by the Teleflex Board of Directors to succeed Smith as CEO following Smith’s retirement.
     
    “I’m grateful to Benson for his years of leadership as CEO, under which Teleflex has continuously expanded and improved its capabilities as a diversified, global provider of medical technologies, and I’m excited by the prospect of leading Teleflex through the Company’s next stage of growth and development,” said Kelly.
