Arbolus announces the appointment of Steve Martin, former EY Managing Partner, as Chair of the board, signaling a pivotal moment for the company as it embarks on an ambitious growth trajectory.

Drawing from over thirty years of consulting career marked by transformative leadership and a keen eye for innovation, Steve is set to play a crucial role in shaping Arbolus’ growth strategy.

With products like Canopy and AI-driven platform features, they've already demonstrated a commitment to this mission, and I'm excited to see how far we can push the boundaries together.” 

Arbolus Co-founder and CEO, Sam Glasswell, expressed enthusiasm over Steve's appointment, stating:

"We are delighted to welcome Steve to the Arbolus board. Having known him for some time, it is clear he will be a fantastic Chair for Arbolus.
