Diginex Limited Appoints Lubomila Jordanova as CEO to Accelerate Strategic Acquisitions and Drive Global Expansion

Diginex Limited (NASDAQ: DGNX)(“Diginex” or the “Company”), a leading provider of software that helps businesses and governments manage sustainability, regulatory, and supply chain data, today announced the appointment of Lubomila Jordanova as Chief Executive Officer, representing a key milestone in the Company’s next phase of growth and European expansion.

Ms. Jordanova, Founder and former CEO of Plan A.earth GmbH (“Plan A”), which was recently acquired by Diginex, brings a proven track record of building and scaling one of Europe’s leading carbon accounting and decarbonization platforms. Her appointment reflects Diginex’s ambition to further strengthen its integrated sustainability and RegTech offering platform and accelerate execution across Europe and globally.

Lubomila Jordanova is a recognized leader in sustainability technology and climate strategy, with experience spanning entrepreneurship, finance, and policy advisory roles. She is the Founder of Plan A, a leading platform that helps companies measure, manage, and reduce their carbon emissions. Under her leadership, Plan A achieved significant growth across Europe, building global partnerships with organizations such as Visa and developing a client base that includes BMW, Chloé and more than 1,500 companies worldwide. In addition, Ms. Jordanova has served on advisory bodies for organizations including the European Investment Bank, WEPA, and Satgana, and brings a background in investment banking and venture capital across Asia and Europe.

In recognition of her impact and leadership, Ms. Jordanova has been named an Obama Europe Leader, MIT Innovator Under 35 Europe, Marshall Fund Fellow, Top 50 Women Entrepreneurs in Germany (Handelsblatt), and has been featured in Forbes 30 Under 30 and Capital 50 Under 50, among other distinctions.

As part of this leadership transition, Mark Blick has stepped down as Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately. Mr. Blick, who led the Company through its successful Nasdaq listing in January 2025 and a period of significant growth and strategic acquisitions, will continue to support Diginex as a Strategic Advisor to the incoming CEO during the transition.

Under Mr. Blick’s leadership, Diginex achieved several transformative milestones, including a 293% increase in revenue, multiple strategic acquisitions to build a comprehensive compliance and sustainability platform, and the establishment of key relationships with global organizations such as HSBC, Coca-Cola, and Fitch Ratings. These efforts positioned Diginex at the forefront of a rapidly growing global sustainability software market projected to reach $80–100 billion by 2030.

The leadership transition reflects Diginex’s increasing strategic focus on becoming one of the top sustainability technology firms globally. The recent acquisition and integration of Plan A further enhances Diginex’s ability to deliver integrated solutions that connect sustainability reporting with practical data-driven emissions reduction strategies.

“This transition marks an exciting new chapter for Diginex as we deepen our global footprint and accelerate our integrated platform strategy,” said Miles Pelham, Chairman of Diginex. “Mark's visionary leadership has been instrumental in the Diginex IPO, scaling our RegTech solutions, and executing our M&A-driven growth. We are grateful for his continued contributions as a Strategic Advisor, where his expertise will support Lubomila and the team during this pivotal phase.”

“Ms. Jordanova brings extensive experience in carbon accounting, decarbonization strategy, and sustainability regulations, complementing Diginex's existing capabilities in ESG reporting across 19 global frameworks, supply chain transparency, and AI-driven analytics,” said Mr. Pelham. “Her appointment is expected to enhance the Company's ability to deliver end-to-end solutions that link regulatory compliance, value-chain emissions tracking, and actionable decarbonization pathways, particularly in response to evolving EU directives and global demand for verifiable sustainability data.”

“I am honored to lead Diginex at this transformative moment,” said Lubomila Jordanova, CEO of Diginex. "As Diginex accelerates its expansion across Europe and executes a focused M&A strategy, we are moving beyond simple data tracking towards building a true Sustainability RegTech powerhouse. By leveraging the collective strengths of the Diginex portfolio, we are transforming complex regulatory requirements into a sustainable competitive advantage that positions compliance as a strategic driver of growth and enterprise value.”

Mr. Blick commented:

“It has been a privilege to guide Diginex from its early days to its current position as a dynamic force in Sustainability RegTech. I am excited to support Lubomila and the team in an advisory capacity as the Company enters its next phase of growth.”

The Board of Directors expressed its sincere appreciation to Mr. Blick for his leadership and dedication and looks forward to the Company’s continued innovation and expansion under Ms. Jordanova’s leadership.
