Executive Chairman, Justin Drummond and Non-Executive Directors, Haresh Kanabar and Alessandro Malacart have resigned “with immediate effect to pursue other projects” from leisure and entertainment investment firm Brainspark. The company has had a torrid time of late, dropping 62% this year. Commenting on Drummond’s departure the group’s Chief Executive Alfredo Villa said: "Justin joined the board in February of this year at a very difficult time for the company, but his contribution during his short tenure, particularly his ability to quickly raise money for us, has left Brainspark in a much stronger position."
