Linebacker, Inc. Announces New CEO

Columbus, OH (August 19, 2011)—SyberMed Enterprises, LLC has become Linebacker, Inc. (www.linebackerinc.com) and the company is pleased to announce the recent addition of Jack Kromar as Chief Executive Officer.

The Linebacker^® was developed by Dr. David Sybert, Chairman of the Department of Anesthesia at Riverside Methodist Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. The patented system uses a secure hook and loop strap that replaces tape to secure IVs. In 2011, the company introduced Linebacker PEDS^® and Linebacker NEONATAL^®, product extensions that offer superior comfort—no more sticky tape or painful skin irritations that can damage young skin. The company recently incorporated to expand its business offerings and begin research and development on new products.

Jack Kromar, the new CEO, brings over 25 years of general management and commercial operations experience to Linebacker, Inc., including nearly 20 years at Roche Diagnostics. While at Roche, Jack held various sales, marketing, and management positions including VP of Corporate Accounts for the U.S., as well as heading up the Hospital, Laboratory and Research businesses in Montreal, Canada. Most recently, Jack has been involved in several early stage medical device companies, serving as CEO of DIRAmed LLC and VP of Sales and Marketing at Cylex.

“Jack has an outstanding, proven track record of helping new businesses succeed,” said Dr. Sybert, Founder and Medical Director of Linebacker, Inc. “We welcome his extensive experience and knowledge of the medical device field, and look forward to growing the Linebacker brand.”
