With over 20 years of industry experience, Klein will focus on developing new partnerships and market penetration. In addition, Claire Ortiz, former creative director at Nike, Jordan Brand, and global business director at Wilson (apparel, footwear and accessories) and former VP of business development North America at Clim8, will serve as marketing director North America, while leading business development for her key accounts. Clim8 plans to announce new partnerships and product launches with top global brands this winter and to introduce its thermal management technology to the U.S. market.
