Diginex Limited, a leading provider of Sustainability RegTech and Data Management solutions, today announced the appointment of Lorenzo Romano as Deputy Chairman. This strategic elevation strengthens Diginex’s governance and positions the Company to capitalize on the rapidly expanding global sustainability RegTech market, which is projected to grow from approximately $20 billion in 2025 to over $80 billion by 2032, driven by escalating ESG regulations and demand for advanced compliance technologies.
Mr. Romano joined Diginex earlier this year as Head of M&A and Strategic Development, where he has been instrumental in advancing the Company’s acquisition strategy, identifying high-potential opportunities in the RegTech and data-intelligence sectors, and supporting the Company’s post-acquisition integration of Matter DK ApS. His leadership has already contributed to key initiatives, including the recent acquisition MOUs – Matter (https://www.thisismatter.com/) and Plan A (https://plana.earth/) – that align with Diginex’s vision for innovation in ESG reporting, supply chain transparency, and AI-enabled compliance.
The appointment underscores the Board’s confidence in Mr. Romano’s expertise to help guide Diginex amid surging global demand for robust sustainability solutions. As regulatory frameworks like the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and emerging ESG mandates intensify worldwide, companies are increasingly turning to specialized RegTech platforms to manage complex reporting, risk assessment, and data integrity requirements efficiently.
In his expanded role as Deputy Chairman, Mr. Romano will enhance corporate governance and strategic planning, and continue driving the Company’s M&A agenda. He will collaborate closely with senior management to align long-term objectives with operational execution, ensuring Diginex remains at the forefront of delivering verifiable, tech-driven solutions for ESG compliance and sustainable impact.
“Lorenzo’s strategic insight and operational acumen have already proven invaluable, and his appointment as Deputy Chairman reflects our commitment to robust leadership as we accelerate growth and deliver greater value to stakeholders,” said Miles Pelham, Chairman and Founder of Diginex. “Diginex is strategically poised to lead in the booming sustainability RegTech sector, where innovative tools are essential for navigating increasingly stringent global regulations.”
