“Following our Company’s successful IPO in August, I weighed my other obligations and came to the difficult decision to step down from my day-to-day responsibilities as CEO,” said Bordes. “While I plan to devote my time and energies on my family and other pursuits, I will also continue in my commitment as a director and work closely with Paul to ensure a seamless transition. Kubient has never been in a stronger position, and I look forward to supporting the leadership team from the board and as a major shareholder to realize the tremendous potential of our disruptive technology.”
