Aura announced leadership updates following the completion of its acquisition of Qoria, according to a press release. Hari Ravichandran will remain CEO of the combined company, while Sujay Jaswa will continue as Chairman of the Board.
Brian DeCenzo, currently Aura’s CFO, will take on the role of CFO and President of the merged company. Qoria’s CFO, Ben Jenkins, will serve as CFO Australia, reporting to DeCenzo. Tim Levy, Managing Director of Qoria, will join the board and lead Aura Alpha, a new venture focused on partnerships, global distribution, and corporate development.
