ASX Announcement 8th October 2019
Change to Jayride Board of Directors
Jayride Group Limited (ASX:JAY) (“ Jayride” or the “ Company” ) the travel marketplace where travellers compare and book airport transfers today advises that Jayride co-founder Mr Zhongyuan (Ross) Lin resigns from the board as part of the Company’s strategic planning for board renewal.
Mr Lin’s resignation is part of the Jayride board’s ongoing process of continuous improvement and review to enhance board skills and ensure the company has the best and most appropriate strategic members to suit its phase of growth at any given time.
Mr Lin commented: “It has been an honor and privilege to serve the Company since its inception. I am so proud of all we have accomplished in the past eight years, and I have no doubt at all that the Company will continue these successes in the future.”
Jayride Group has fundamentally grown in scope since the launch of the Company’s new global foundation in July 2019. Following Mr Lin’s resignation, and ahead of the upcoming AGM, the Company begins a process to find a new world-class director with experience in global travel tech to maximise leverage of the Company’s new global foundation.
MD and co-founder, Rod Bishop commented: “We are scaling globally and at high speed thanks to our fundamental technology advantage – an advantage that Ross instilled in the culture of our Company from its inception. Now as we set our sights to leverage that advantage with a new appointment, we’ll be seeing the rewards for many years to come.”
Chairman, Andrey Shirben commented: “Jayride is a global company now, entering a new phase of global growth. We see how compelling this opportunity is and believe now that the foundation is complete, ahead of our 2019 AGM, that this is the right time to seek further skills at the board table which can maximise our global online travel opportunity.”
“After Ross’ amazing eight-year tenure, we will now seek Jayride’s next great director and contributor. We wish Ross the absolute best in the next stage of life with his family, and in his career and with his new startup.”
