What happened?

ClearVue advised that its interim CEO Kenan Jagger has handed in his resignation notice.

While Mr Jagger serves out his notice period, he will assist in the transition to incoming new management.

In this morning's release, the ClearVue board thanked him for his positive contributions over the last 2 years, in which he served as chief commercial officer before taking the helm as interim CEO. Mr Jagger was recognised in his efforts to improve sales, marketing, and investor relations activity.

The company advised it was pursuing a replacement with extensive experience, in order to continue moving the global ClearVue business forward.

In addition, the chase for a European CEO, as well as sales and marketing specialists in the United States is also ongoing. The company is developing its global roll-out strategy, and is searching for a leadership team in its tier 1 territories.

ClearVue stated it will update the market in the coming weeks with the inclusion of a European CEO, and other key management roles.
