IPGA Ltd, the operator of Asia's No. 1 network of property websites under the iProperty.com brand has restructured its board.
Non-executive director Simon Baker has been appointed chairman and former executive chairman, Patrick Grove will move to a non-executive role, and assume the title of deputy chairman.
The board has also elected a new director, Luke Elliott.
“It’s an honor to take over the Chairmanship of IPGA. The business has established itself as a leader in online real estate advertising in the region and is well positioned to take advantage of the rapid growth online property advertising in Asia,” Baker said.
Elliott, a founding shareholder of IPGA’s majority shareholder, Catcha Media Group, brings over 10 years of Asian online media experience. He currently serves as the GM of Catcha Digital, a partnership between Microsoft and Catcha Media Group to operate Microsoft’s entire suite of online products in Malaysia, and is one of the region’s leading experts in developing fast moving online business models and monetising online media assets.
The changes to the board follow the recent appointment of former REA Group general manager, Shaun Di Gregorio, as IPGA’s CEO.
