Commenting on Trevor’s CEO appointment, Chris Tait, Non-Executive Chair said: “As a global leader in video technology, Atomos needs a CEO who understands how our legacy was created and how we leverage these deep technology smarts into the future. Trevor has been instrumental in the strategic plans for our product roadmap, which are key to the Company’s future success.”

Trevor Elbourne, CEO , said: “I welcome the opportunity to build on the momentum we have regained since April when we launched Atomos Connect and our new suite of cloud-connected products and services. Having been part of the Atomos success story for a decade, it is gratifying to now drive the Company’s vision and strategy as its Chief Executive and I feel confident that our exciting product pipeline will support our future growth prospects. I look forward to executing our plans as we reach and delight more and more customers with Atomos every day.”
