Sven Molter joins Silverchair with extensive experience in industry product roles, most recently at PLOS and Clarivate. He is also the President of the International Society of Managing and Technical Editors (ISMTE). As VP of Product, Molter will be responsible for informing, developing, and executing on Silverchair’s product investments across all segments. This role crafts the vision for Silverchair’s products, informed by clients and the overall market, and will play a key role in Silverchair’s expanding AI initiatives.

“Silverchair prioritizes innovation and experimentation while maintaining a steadfast dedication to its current product offerings,” said Molter. “That's a compelling organization to be a part of, and I am excited about joining the Silverchair team. I look forward to adding value to the capabilities and services of Silverchair's existing platform and to collaborating with the team on future innovations.”

In conjunction with this appointment, Hannah Heckner Swain will move into the new, expanded role of VP, Strategic Partnerships.

“The growth of the Product team at Silverchair over the last four years has been an exciting journey to be a part of,” said Swain. “Throughout this time, I’ve been most energized and activated while collaborating with clients, prospects, and outside partners to solve problems and pursue emerging opportunities, and I’m thrilled to be able to devote more of my time and energy to this aspect of my work.”

“Together, the expanded team reflects the role of Product at the heart of Silverchair’s strategy to support the independent publishing community and positions Silverchair well for future innovation,” said Emilie Delquié, SVP of Product and Customer Success. “I am thrilled to bring Sven and Hannah’s expertise together as we continue to uncover new efficiencies and more flexibility for our clients.”
