San Mateo, CA, April 29, 2021 – 3DLOOK, the global leader in AI-first mobile body measuring and fit solutions, today announced that Paul Schaut has joined its board of directors. A technology pioneer with more than two decades of experience leading and serving as an outside director on the boards of companies in the ecommerce sector, Schaut will focus on supporting 3DLOOK’s explosive growth as the company enables mass customization of consumer apparel products based on human body data in the fashion retail and uniform sectors.
“Paul is a strong, experienced leader who has been driving innovation in ecommerce since the pre-dot-com bubble times,” said Vadim Rogovskiy, CEO and co-founder of 3DLOOK. “We’ve seen exceptional growth over the past year, with our business increasing nearly sixfold as leading brands have accelerated digitization to offer a more personal, contactless shopping experience driven by data intelligence, and we’re confident that Paul’s expertise and strategic mindset will help us build on that momentum and achieve our most ambitious goals.”
Schaut is an accomplished CEO and a board director with an exceptional grasp of how to leverage technology to disrupt marketplaces and gain competitive advantage. He has successfully helmed eight companies as CEO or interim CEO and has served on the boards of 21 companies in total. As board director of Fluid Inc., a leader in emotive and conversational ecommerce, Schaut assisted in securing funding from Goldman Sachs and the eventual sale to both IBM and Astound Commerce. Earlier in his career, he helped publicly held Open Market, an early ecommerce innovator, establish and execute its successful sales, marketing and business development strategies as well as Engage – the first behavioral profiling company which he took public and grew to a high market cap of $12b leading a team of 1800 people. Schaut holds a BS in Business from San Jose State University and has worked with the Martin Trust Center for MIT Entrepreneurship and served on the Massachusetts High Technology Council. He is a member of the National Association of Corporate Directors (NACD).
“3DLOOK is driving the next phase in the evolution of ecommerce, where product fit is not determined by generic standards created by retailers, but is instead personalized based on each consumer’s unique body data,” said Paul Schaut, Member of the Board of Directors, 3DLOOK. “I have been fortunate over my career to have gained significant experience with companies that offer disruptive new concepts and 3DLOOK’s technology is cutting edge. I’m extremely pleased to join the company’s board and to work with this exceptional team as they execute their vision and enable customization at scale across retail categories.”
