strengthen operational execution, drive product innovation, and
accelerate revenue growth
Weave (NYSE: WEAV), a leading all-in-one customer communications

businesses, announced two new additions to its leadership today.
Weave’s expansion of its world-class executive team will continue
to strengthen its operational and product capabilities, adding
value to both customers and shareholders as the company focuses on
accelerating growth.
Brett White will be President and Chief Operating Officer,
effective April 25. White, formerly COO and CFO at Mindbody, is a
highly skilled and accomplished public company executive with
extensive SaaS and payments experience building world-class
financial and operational teams. White joined the Weave Board of
Directors in July 2020 and will continue to serve as a Director,
stepping down from his role as Audit Committee Chair. Board
Chairperson Stuart Harvey has been appointed to replace White as
Audit Committee Chair.
“Brett White has been an instrumental Board member guiding Weave
as we scaled operations and prepared for our initial public
offering,” said Roy Banks, Weave CEO. “His deep understanding of
verticalized software solutions, the payments industry and the
strong fundamentals of Weave’s business and financial model make
him the right person to help execute Weave’s strategic priorities
to accelerate our growth.”
Additionally, Branden Neish will be joining Weave as Chief
Product Officer, effective April 26. Neish, a product visionary and
former CEO of Agemni and Co-Founder/CEO of Gear.com, will lead
product strategy to build scalable and innovative solutions for
Weave’s customers. Neish has driven product design, development and
transformation at Progressive Leasing, Ancestry.com and General
Motors, adding significant revenue to those businesses.
"These exciting additions to our executive team position us to
continue accelerating Weave’s growth, product innovation and market
leadership,” said Banks. “Branden and Brett will be instrumental in
driving Weave’s vision to delight customers as the leading
all-in-one communications and engagement platform for small and
medium-sized businesses.”
Weave also announced that effective April 25, Marty Smuin,
current Chief Operating Officer, will step down in connection with
Mr. White’s appointment. Smuin will remain in an advisory role
until June 1 to ensure a smooth transition. Additionally, Weave

leaving Weave for a new opportunity effective May 2.
