/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION, DISTRIBUTION OR DISSEMINATION DIRECTLY, OR INDIRECTLY, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, IN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES./

OTTAWA, ON, Sept. 7, 2023 /CNW/ – Martello Technologies Group Inc., (“Martello” or the “Company”) (TSXV: MTLO), a provider of software that optimizes the Microsoft Modern Workplace, announced today the resignation of Director Antoine Leboyer. Mr. Leboyer, the former CEO of Switzerland-based GSX, joined the Martello Board of Directors (the “Board”) in November 2020 following the acquisition of GSX by Martello.

Since his departure from GSX in 2020, Mr. Leboyer has been working at the Munich Technical University where he runs the Software and Artificial Intelligence Venture Labs whose role is to nurture and mentor startup founders. While in Geneva, Mr. Leboyer was a board member of the liberal synagogue. He has recently undertaken a project to create a focused large language model for Hebrew texts as part of his passion to give back to the Jewish community. With this project consuming more of Mr. Leboyer’s time, he has decided to reduce certain responsibilities, including stepping back from his Board role at Martello.

“It has been a pleasure working closely with Martello Chairman Terry Matthews and CEO John Proctor over the last few years”, said Mr. Leboyer. “I wish Martello well as the company continues to develop the Vantage DX market and build important partnerships with Microsoft, Orange and others”.

“Antoine has been an asset to Martello as we undertook a strategic transformation to focus on optimization of the Microsoft modern workplace”, said Terry Matthews, Chairman of Martello. “On behalf of the Martello team, I thank him for his support and guidance, particularly throughout the integration of the GSX business into Martello. We wish him the best in his future projects and endeavors.”
