Rosslyn Data Technologies plc
("RDT" the "Company")
Board Appointment and Changes
Rosslyn Data Technologies plc (AIM: RDT), a leading global big
data technology company, is delighted to announce that James
Appleby will be joining the board of RDT as a Non-Executive
Director with immediate effect. James' appointment will bring
significant experience in the data and technical space to the board
and will assist in the development of the Company's strategy. This
is a transformational period for the business and James'
appointment adds additional strength to the Board, supporting the
Company's strategy and execution.
James will be replacing Ed Stacey, who has been on the board
since the IPO in April 2014. Ed's commitments have, unfortunately,
led to him not having sufficient time to continue to perform the
role as he wishes and therefore he will be stepping down as
Non-Executive Director with immediate effect.
The Board would like to take the opportunity to thank Ed for his
services over the last three years and wish him well for the
future.

James Appleby joins RDT having previously spent fourteen years

strategy.
As well as a track record of driving sustained fast growth in
the technology sector, James also brings 25 years of experience in
analytics, data management and information insight. James will
assist RDT in shaping the future and the role that technology,
leadership and values can play in the revolution that is happening
in the business world today. He will build on the Company's vision
to empower customers with market-leading artificial intelligence,
robotics, control systems and deep analytics capabilities.
Commenting on his appointment, James Appleby, said, "I am
delighted to be joining RDT. This is an exciting time for the
Company as it aims to expand in the unstructured and structured
data markets and introduces the wider concept of true AI. I am

at such a pivotal time in the company's growth, but James' skills

increasing demands on technology within the data space. I welcome
