Aferian plc (LSE AIM: AFRN), the B2B video streaming solutions company, today announces a change to its Board of Directors.
Steve Vaughan, Non-Executive Director of Aferian plc since 2019 and current Chair of the Board's Remuneration Committee, has stepped down from the Board today. Following his recent appointment to the Board as a Non-Executive Director on 4 April 2023, Max Royde will take up the position of Chair of the Board's Remuneration Committee from today.
The Board is keenly aware of the need for both diversity and a balance between Executive and Non-Executive Directors on the Board. We are currently reviewing the composition of the Board and expect to improve the diversity of its membership in the coming 12 months.
Mark Wells, Non-Executive Chairman of Aferian said: "On behalf of the Board and our Aferian team, I would like to thank Steve for his support over the years, particularly in helping to guide our transition to a software-led business. We wish him well.
Having recently joined the Board and bringing specialist experience in business-critical software companies, Max will play a wider role moving forward as Chair of our Remuneration Committee."
