Molten Ventures VCT plc (“Company”)
23 January 2024
LEI: 2138003I9Q1QPDSQ9Z97
Directorate Change
The Board of Molten Ventures VCT plc is pleased to announce the appointment of
Sally Duckworth as a non-executive director of the Company with effect from 22
January 2024.
As noted in the Chairman’s Statement with the last Annual Report, the
Company has undertaken a process to identify suitable non-executive director
candidates as part of a board refresh exercise following a period of
significant upheaval.
Sally has worked in the financial services sector since 1990 and in the
private equity industry since 2000. She qualified as an accountant with Price
Waterhouse and has experience in investment banking at J.P. Morgan and in
early-stage venture capital at Quester Capital Management. She has been an
active angel investor and has held various board and senior operational roles
within technology businesses. She is currently chairman of StorMagic Limited,
a private IT storage technology business and audit chair of JPMorgan Japanese
Investment Trust plc (JFJ). She is also the audit chair for Mobeus Income and
Growth 2 VCT plc (MIG), but will be stepping down from the MIG board later in
2024 as part of their succession planning.
The chairman, David Brock, said “We are delighted that Sally has agreed to
join the Board of Molten Ventures VCT plc. She has a wealth of highly relevant
experience in both the technology sector, in which the Company now invests,
and also the VCT sector. My fellow directors and I are greatly looking forward
to working with her.”
The Board confirms that no other disclosures need to be made under Listing
Rule 9.6.13 in respect of this appointment
