Directorate changes
Ilika plc (AIM: IKA), the advanced solid-state battery
technology and materials innovation company, announces that with
effect from 30 September 2018, Professor Sir William Wakeham
("Bill") will be retiring from the board of the Company as a
Non-Executive Director. Professor Sir William was appointed to the
Board in May 2010 when the Company completed its IPO and he retires
in line with the Company's best practice governance guidelines.
Professor Sir William's place on the board, the nomination,
audit and remuneration committees will be filled by Jeremy Millard
who is expected to be joining the board on 1 October and will be
offering himself for election at the forthcoming AGM on 4 October
2018.
Jeremy has nearly 20 years investment banking experience and was
previously a partner at Smith Square Partners LLC where he provided
strategic and corporate advice to clients in the science,
technology and telecommunications sectors, prior to which he headed
up the technology practice at Rothschild in London. Jeremy is
currently a Non-Executive Director and chairman of the audit
committee of AIM-listed Idox plc as well as a Non-Executive
Director of Blackbullion Limited.
Jeremy will be formally appointed to the Board following
satisfactory completion of the customary due diligence for an AIM
listed company's board appointments. A further announcement
confirming his appointment will be made once this process is
completed and will include the disclosures required under Schedule
2(g) of the AIM Rules for Companies.
Mike Inglis, Chairman of Ilika said: "The board would like to
thank Bill for his service and the contribution he has made to the
Company's development during the past eight years. Bill's technical
and engineering experience has been key to the Company progressing
the Stereax(R) battery technology.
"I would also like to welcome Jeremy to the board and expect to
put his wealth of strategic advisory and corporate governance
experience to good use in helping to develop Ilika as a
business."
