She is a truly transformational leader and we are very lucky to have her as a guide in the next phase of our growth. Her wealth of experience within APAC is hugely beneficial as we establish the next generation of media intelligence products that delivers the best service to our growing global customer base following the recent takeover of Isentia.

I am delighted to add Lisa to our board, as we continue to demonstrate a preeminent position of equality and diversity as a technology business."

With the most recent acquisition of Isentia, giving Access Intelligence a true global footprint, I believe the time is right to join the team to collaborate on go-to-market, branding initiatives and beyond.

I've spent a large part of my career scaling organisations globally and I can recognise a business that will change the landscape. Access Intelligence is in a prime position to be a market leading innovator, and disruptor for the industry."
