TCAT makes two senior appointments in new roles to drive

strategy implementation and growth

Software platform TCAT Ltd ("TCAT"), a leading innovator in music copyright protection and rights management which is a subsidiary of One Media (AIM: OMIP), announces the appointment of two senior executives to its leadership team in the newly created positions of Head of Sales and Head of Marketing.

Harry Lawrence takes up the position of Head of Sales at TCAT, bringing 10 years of experience in business development, partnerships and sales. Harry joins from Lickd Ltd, the commercial music licensing platform for social creators and the metaverse, where he was Music Licensing and Label Partnerships Manager, responsible for fostering partnerships which resulted in an expansion of Lickd's commercial music track offering and collaborations with over 10,000 rightsholders. Prior to Lickd, Harry was New Business and Digital Licensing Assistant at Universal Music Publishing Group.

Donna Kei joins as the new Head of Marketing. With a career spanning over 10 years in the technology, music, and entertainment sectors, Donna's most recent role was Lead of Marketing Music EMEA at Netflix and she previously worked at Universal Music Publishing Group, with a focus on licensing and strategic partnerships. She brings to TCAT expertise in music rights marketing, strategic partnerships and music licensing, as well as sales experience which will underpin the development and implementation of a goals-oriented marketing strategy for the software product suite.

The new appointments will report into TCAT CEO, Nick Stewart, and will collaborate closely to devise and execute effective, complementary sales and marketing campaigns to expand TCAT's client and partnership base with the aim of enhancing its global presence, promoting its innovative solutions among a diverse audience and, ultimately, driving growth.

We have a clear set of objectives for the business, underpinned by a strong pipeline of products and potential revenue opportunities, which the addition of these important new appointments will support the achievement of."
