The two new members joining the board are Matt Benard, vice-president of compliance and privacy and data protection officer at Escalent, and David Rothstein, chief executive officer at RTi Research.

Melanie Courtright, chief executive at the IA, and Juliana Wood, CIRQ’s managing director, hold ex-officio (non-voting) board positions. Board members at the CIRQ serve a two-year term.

Santa said: “It’s an exciting time for CIRQ and our momentum has never been stronger. The primary objective of the CIRQ board remains the continued growth and expansion of our organisation.

“I am looking forward to collaborating with both existing and new board directors to achieve our shared goals and further elevate CIRQ’s impact in the industry.”
