I am excited to be taking on this new challenge and joining a team that has a track record of innovation, development and delivery of market leading real-time financial solutions. Gresham has done the heavy lifting in getting these solutions to market and I now intend to rapidly increase Gresham’s profile and ensure that the demands for real-time financial information are met.”
