IPipeline has appointed Adam Boone as chief financial officer with the aim of spearheading plans for sustained strategic growth.
In his new role Boone (pictured), who joins after 18 months as CFO at manufcaturing data firm Sight Machine, will lead the financial management activities and play a key role in advancing the company’s strategic operating initiatives, the technology provider said.
It added that over his 17-year-plus career, Boone has been managing global finance functions and cultivating high-performing teams at high-growth technology companies.
He drove efforts to secure strategic investments from industry leaders at data solutions provider Sight Machine; and built the corporate finance and strategy functions at software platform LeafLink.
Previously, Boone built and scaled the global financial planning and analysis (FP&A) function for one of the largest technology investors in the world, OLX Group/Naspers Limited, as its operations expanded to more than 40 countries and scaled to more than $1bn in annual revenue.
Pat O’Donnell, CEO at IPipeline, said: “Adam brings a wealth of corporate finance, strategy, FP&A, and investor relations expertise to our organisation, and will play a critical role in our continued global growth.
“Adam is a proven leader with a strong vision for growth and is just as passionate as we are about using data-driven, digital technology to automate and streamline the insurance and financial services industries.”
Boone joins the IPipeline leadership team and will guide the global team that supports the financial strategy of the organisation and will also be tasked with leading and driving IPipeline’s investment strategies and business development opportunities.
Daphne Thomas, COO at IPipeline, added: “Adam could not be better suited to lead our financial team through this next phase of growth. He is a big picture thinker and has a keen understanding of what it takes to sustain growth at leading technology companies.
She added that he will be working with life insurance and financial services industries in North America, and life insurance and pensions industries in the UK.
