Ventus VCT plc announced the appointment of Lloyd Chamberlain as a non-executive director of the company with effect from 14 June 2019. Lloyd's career in finance and business has spanned more than 20 years; most recently as the founder and managing partner of Praxient Capital LLP. The Board anticipates that this increase in the number of directors is temporary, and that one of the directors will retire following a successful outcome of the continuation vote at the company's 2020 AGM.
