Earlier this month, digital imaging solutions provider Canon Canada appointed Mikio Takagi as their new president and CEO.
Takagi started his career with Canon in 1989, after earning a bachelor’s degree in international politics and emerging market economies from Aoyama Gakuin University in Tokyo. Over the past 35 years, he has worked in various regions—including Japan, Hong Kong, China, and the U.S.—and held progressively more senior roles with the company. He became president of Canon Mexicana in 2019, and since 2021, he has been president and CEO of Canon Mexicana, Canon Panama, and Canon Latin America North Zone.
In his new role, Takagi succeeds Isao (Sammy) Kobayashi, who has assumed the role of president and CEO of Canon U.S.A.
“I am thrilled to join the talented and committed team at Canon Canada,” he says. “For 50 years, Canon Canada has delivered innovative solutions to consumers and businesses across the country. I’m eager to build on the company’s strong foundation. This is an exciting time for the digital imaging industry. We’re ready to embrace this new wave of innovation and explore new opportunities.”
