JENNIFER N. HARRIS DESIGNATED TO JUMIO BOARD OF DIRECTORS

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 22 -- Jumio, the leading provider of AI-powered end-to-end identity verification and eKYC solutions, has announced the appointment of Jennifer N. Harris to serve on the company’s Board of Directors.

Most recently, she was chief financial officer at Q2 Holdings Inc, a provider of secure, cloud-based digital solutions in financial services.

Harris has extensive experience with acquisitions and IPOs, and joins Jumio after more than three decades spent in high-profile finance and accounting positions at rapidly growing public and private high-technology companies, serving markets ranging from SaaS and cloud-based finance solutions to non-profit software solutions, broadband and mobile data services.

“Jennifer’s expertise in financial and operational infrastructure at high-growth technology companies is a tremendous asset for Jumio as we continue to scale our leadership in the digital identity space,” said Jumio CEO Robert Prigge in a statement.

“Her stewardship role will further strengthen our ability to leverage record growth and our recent investment from Great Hill Partners for long-term profitability and performance.”

Harris’ appointment to the Board comes at a strategic inflection point for Palo Alto-based Jumio which secured the US$150 million investment from Great Hill Partners in March, and also grew revenue and sales over 150 per cent in Q2 2021 and achieved all-time record sales for its end-to-end AML compliance solutions. (US$1 = RM4.187)

“I’m thrilled to be joining Jumio at such an auspicious moment for the company. Jumio is transforming the identity verification playbook for KYC, fraud detection, compliance, bank-grade security and other demanding use cases,” said Harris, a graduate of Indiana University (B.S., Business), who began her career as public accountant with Price Waterhouse.

Jumio also recently expanded its executive bench with key hires including Anna Convery as chief marketing officer and Bala Kumar as chief product officer.
