Everseen, a global leader in Vision AI for retail, has appointed Joe White as its new Chief Executive Officer, marking a major leadership shift as the company gears up for its next phase of growth. White—best known for leading product and innovation at Zebra Technologies, Motorola, and Symbol—brings more than three decades of enterprise technology experience across retail, logistics, and industrial automation.
He succeeds founder Alan O’Herlihy, who remains on the company’s board alongside Greg Clark and Vivek Mani of Crosspoint Capital Partners, continuing to guide Everseen’s strategy as it scales globally.
“Joe’s ability to drive enterprise-grade innovation at scale makes him ideally suited to lead Everseen into its next phase of growth,” said Greg Clark, Managing Partner at Crosspoint Capital. “Under his leadership, Everseen will continue to advance its mission to make store operations more intelligent and efficient while maximizing ROI for retailers worldwide.”
Driving the Next Chapter of Retail AI
Founded in Cork, Ireland, Everseen has become a trusted partner to some of the world’s largest retailers. Its Vision AI platform is deployed at thousands of checkout points, helping detect errors, reduce shrink, and improve operational efficiency—all in real time.
Everseen’s AI system processes video streams at the edge, identifying issues such as mis-scans, theft, or operational bottlenecks before they escalate. The platform has also begun integrating agentic AI capabilities—self-directed, context-aware AI agents that proactively optimize store operations and supply chain decisions.
The company’s approach has attracted major retail players, including global supermarket chains and big-box stores that rely on AI-driven insights to manage inventory and improve the customer experience.
A Veteran at the Helm
White’s appointment signals Everseen’s intent to evolve from a retail-focused AI player into a broader vision intelligence provider that spans logistics, supply chain, and industrial automation.
Before joining Everseen, White served as Chief Product and Solutions Officer at Zebra Technologies, overseeing strategy and development for its machine vision, RFID, and mobile computing portfolios. His leadership helped shape many of the backbone technologies that define modern retail and supply chain operations.
“I’m thrilled to join Everseen at such a pivotal time in the retail technology landscape,” said White. “Everseen’s Vision AI software is already delivering powerful solutions at the edge. I look forward to expanding our platform’s reach into new industries while continuing to power real-time insights for the world’s leading retailers.”
Vision AI Meets Operational Intelligence
The leadership transition comes amid a surge of investment in computer vision and AI-driven retail automation, as retailers grapple with rising shrinkage and labor challenges. According to McKinsey, Vision AI adoption in retail has grown by over 40% since 2023, driven by applications in loss prevention, inventory management, and shelf analytics.
Everseen’s combination of edge computing and agentic AI positions it well in a market dominated by rivals like Standard AI, Trigo, and Amazon’s Just Walk Out technology. However, Everseen differentiates itself through its ability to retrofit existing retail infrastructure—reducing integration friction for global enterprises.
“Joe brings deep expertise in scaling complex enterprise solutions,” said Alan O’Herlihy, Everseen’s founder. “His leadership and operational acumen will help accelerate our innovation pipeline and strengthen our partnerships with the world’s top retailers.”
Strategic Momentum and Market Expansion
With backing from Crosspoint Capital Partners, Everseen is preparing to expand beyond retail into logistics, warehouse automation, and industrial manufacturing, leveraging its AI models for real-time visual decision-making.
As the company scales, White’s mandate includes driving new product initiatives, building on Everseen’s R&D strengths, and exploring adjacent sectors that can benefit from computer vision, edge AI, and predictive analytics.
If successful, Everseen could emerge as one of the few European Vision AI companies capable of competing head-to-head with U.S. and Asian tech giants in the fast-evolving AI infrastructure landscape.
The Bottom Line
Everseen’s move to appoint Joe White is more than a leadership shuffle—it’s a signal of ambition and maturity. The company is betting that Vision AI’s next frontier will go beyond checkout optimization, toward full-stack operational intelligence across retail ecosystems.
With White’s track record in enterprise-scale technology and Everseen’s proven AI engine, the company appears well-positioned to lead that transformation.
