Fiery Announces Micah Kornberg As New CEO ─ Kornberg Succeeds Long-Time CEO Toby Weiss, Who Takes On A New Leadership Role Outside The Print Industry
FREMONT, CA. June 29, 2026 – Fiery, LLC, the print industry’s leading innovator of digital front ends (DFEs) and workflow software, today announced that Micah Kornberg, Fiery’s Chief Financial and Operating Officer, has taken on the role of CEO at the company.
Kornberg, who has held senior positions at Fiery since 2011, takes on the role following the departure of Toby Weiss.
Kornberg joined Fiery in 2011 when Electronics For Imaging, Inc. (EFI), Fiery’s former parent company, purchased print-for-pay pioneer Entrac, which Kornberg was president of.
He then served as Vice President and executive sponsor for Fiery’s enterprise accounts division, where he helped modernize Fiery’s enterprise portfolio and became an integral part of Fiery’s leadership team.
More recently, he led the standup of Fiery as an independent company following its separation from EFI in 2023.
In 2025, Kornberg became Fiery’s Chief Financial and Operating Officer.
Weiss led Fiery through several milestones in his 17 years at the company, including the acquisition of direct-to-film software company CADlink in 2022, Fiery’s separation from EFI in 2023, Fiery’s acquisition by Seiko Epson Corporation in 2024, and the acquisition of textile software company Inèdit Software in 2026.
He departs Fiery to serve as CEO for a company in the cybersecurity industry.
“Leading the team at Fiery has been an honor for me. I love the print industry, but decided for personal reasons to take on the challenges of leading a company in the field of cybersecurity, which is where I spent my early career prior to joining Fiery. Micah has been an instrumental part of Fiery’s management team for over 15 years, and I have full confidence that he will continue to expand Fiery’s role as the leading DFE technology provider in digital print,” Weiss explained.
“Toby has been an exceptional leader for over a decade and a half, and his efforts have positioned Fiery extremely well for continued DFE technology leadership and diversified growth. I’m honored to take the reins, and look forward to guiding Fiery to even greater success in the next chapter of its journey,” said Kornberg.

The Market Gap that Changed Everything
Future Fashion was founded in 2019, timed deliberately to coincide with a pivotal moment in global textile technology: the commercial launch of the EFI Reggiani BOLT Single-Pass digital printing system.
The founders recognised that single-pass architecture had fundamentally changed what was industrially possible - and that Pakistan's domestic market had yet to catch up.
Print is no longer defined by the inefficiencies that once characterised it…as advances in production processes and technology have significantly improved its environmental performance.
Taran Rai, Corporate Sustainability Manager at Epson explains why?
The story of what happens when young designers access digital technology is still being written.
What once was a theoretical sustainability goal seems to have shifted into an active regulatory reality.
