Directorate Change
Brave Bison Group plc (AIM: BBSN), the independent digital media
& social video broadcaster, announces the resignation of
Richard Mansell from the Board of Directors as he steps down from
the role as Chief Operating Officer of the Company. Richard's
decision is for private family reasons, and he steps down with
immediate effect.
Ashley MacKenzie, CEO of Brave Bison, said: "Richard is a hugely
effective business partner and great friend. He is one of life's
good guys. From a walk-up in Denmark Street, we co-founded Base79
together with an unwavering belief in online video, YouTube and
wherever the consumer goes the advertiser will follow. Since our
return to Brave Bison last year, we have renewed that focus on
social video creation, with Richard's difficult decision to step
down as COO coming at a hugely exciting time for our business and
industry as a whole. I entirely respect Richard's decision, and am
delighted that he will continue working with Brave Bison on various
projects as a consultant. Richard leaves with the fondest of wishes
from me and everyone at Brave Bison."
Richard Mansell said: "Having been a part of this story from the
very origins of Base79 in 2007, it has been a privilege to see our
business and vision attract such great talent within the industry
as we seek to grow audiences and resultant revenues for all. I
firmly believe Brave Bison's successes will continue, as the
business moves up the value chain in the social video space and
progresses on its path to profitability. I would like to thank
Ashley and the Board for their support."
Richard's responsibilities at Chief Operating Officer will be
shared between between the CEO, CFO and broader leadership group
within the Company.
The Company continues to trade in line with management
expectations. This announcement contains inside information.
