Following a comprehensive selection process, conducted using a
third-party search firm, Herald Investment Trust plc is pleased to
announce the appointment of Andrew Joy as an independent
non-executive director and chairman-designate of the Company with
effect from 1 October 2022. Andrew is expected to succeed Tom Black

work closely with Andrew to ensure an orderly transition.

committee of FPE Capital and is a trustee of several charities. For
one of these charities, he chairs the investment committee of a
GBP300 million endowment.

financial sector and of the high-growth part of the smaller company
sector. He was one of the founding partners of Cinven, a leading
private equity firm investing in Europe and U.S. and has been
chairman or director of numerous growth companies over the past 30
years. He is former chairman of the British Venture Capital and
Private Equity Association and a director of the European Venture
Capital Association.
