Investor fintech Tumelo has appointed Jon Lukomnik to its board of advisors. In the role, he will support the firm’s shareholder voting democratisation goals and offer strategic guidance.
Lukomnik has almost three decades of experience in the industry, and has held a number of educational, fiduciary and consultancy roles throughout his career. He is currently managing partner at his strategic consultancy firm Sinclair Capital and a senior fellow at Boston-based think tank High Meadows Institute.
In March of this year, Lukomnik was appointed the inaugural Fellow at Columbia University's Sustainable Investing Research Initiative, run by the School of International and Public Affairs.
Earlier in his career, Lukomnik has been fiduciary to the five New York pension funds, executive director of the Investor Responsibility Research Centre Institute and co-founder of the International Corporate Governance Network.
Commenting on his appointment, Lukomnik says: “Tumelo is one of the more exciting and innovative fintech companies, helping investors make their voices heard through the din of the capital markets. I find it reassuring that the leaders of Tumelo are two generations younger than I am. That we have such talented up-and-coming entrepreneurs in the field bodes well for the future.”
Will Goodwin, co-founder of Tumelo, adds: “Jon brings a huge amount of experience to our board of advisors, helping us to develop products that solve real problems for our customers. As we expand into the US market, Jon will provide invaluable strategic support to the business.”
