We are excited to announce that Tom Kirby has joined Say Technologies as Head of Issuer Sales, where he will be primarily responsible for growing new business and driving the adoption of Say’s fast growing shareholder engagement platform for public issuers.
“We are thrilled to bring in someone of Tom’s caliber and experience to our growing team,” said Zach Hascoe, Co-Founder and Chief Commercial Officer of Say Technologies. “With Say’s platform having grown to successfully serve some of the largest and most sophisticated public companies in the world, we are confident that Tom is well positioned to take Say’s issuer platform to the next level and to scale our platform across the entire market of public issuers.”
This is an important next step in Say’s ongoing mission to better connect investors with the companies they own and to give public companies tools to better access and communicate with their investors. Say’s innovative shareholder engagement platform addresses critical gaps for investor relations and corporate governance teams by providing direct access to retail shareholders at scale. Say’s product suite includes Shareholder Messages, launched in January 2023, which creates a seamless experience for companies to efficiently communicate with retail shareholders globally for all types of communications including shareholder voting.
"I am extremely excited to be joining Say Technologies, and I look forward to contributing to the growth our platform has had with issuers and investors globally,” said Kirby. “It’s been inspiring to see the impact Say has made in the investor relations and corporate governance landscape and it’s exciting to think that we are still at the very beginning.”
Tom Kirby has held senior roles at Nasdaq, Loyal3, Q4, Rivel and Open Exchange. Notably, during his time as a Managing Director at Q4, Tom helped build out the company’s US sales team and ran the U.S. eastern territory to help Q4 establish a permanent foothold in the U.S. marketplace.
