Corsearch Appoints Abel Clark as Chief Executive Officer
LONDON, June 22, 2022 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Corsearch, a global leader in the intellectual property ("IP") services 
industry, announced today the appointment of Abel Clark as Chief Executive 
Officer, effective immediately. 

As CEO, Abel will focus on accelerating growth and innovation at Corsearch. 
Abel has extensive experience executing customer-led growth strategies and 
leading global tech-enabled data, analytics and services businesses. He has a 
stellar track record of galvanizing strong and engaged teams to deliver 
increased value for customers, and to grow and scale businesses globally.

Abel joins Corsearch at an exciting time for the business. The company has 
grown significantly in recent years and has established itself as a visionary 
leader in tech-enabled clearance and protection solutions for brands, 
trademarks, and content. 

"I'm thrilled to join Corsearch and lead the company through its next stage of 
rapid growth," said Abel Clark, CEO Corsearch. "It's such an exciting time for 
the company and our customers as we continue to leverage technology and the 
unparalleled industry experience of our team to innovate on behalf of our 
customers. I'm honored to join this talented team as we continue to pursue new 
opportunities for innovation and growth."

Most recently, Abel was CEO of Cision, a global leader in PR, IR, marketing and 
social media management technology and intelligence, where he led a commercial 
and operational transformation and delivered a step-change in organic growth. 
He also oversaw the successful acquisition and integration of Brandwatch, a 
leading digital consumer intelligence platform. Previously, Abel was the CEO 
and Chairman of TruSight, a startup backed by leading financial services 
companies and focused on third party risk management, and prior to that he was 
the Global Managing Director of Thomson Reuters' $5.5 billion Financial 
Division, serving over 40,000 customers across 100 countries.

Satoru Ogawa, interim CEO and former CFO of Corsearch, will continue to be a 
key member of the Corsearch executive team. He will assist with a smooth 
transition of leadership responsibilities to Abel and support the ongoing 
strategic development and growth of the company, building on his already 
extensive contribution to Corsearch.

"This is a great day for Corsearch. Abel is a proven world-class executive and 
we're delighted he will lead the company's next phase of growth. His experience 
of scaling global businesses, his growth orientation and his customer 
centricity are some of the many great assets Abel brings to the table," said 
Chris Cozzone of Astorg and Peter Connolly of Cobepa, both Corsearch Board 
members. "This is an exciting time for Abel to be joining Corsearch as the 
company continues to invest in product innovation to further push boundaries of 
brand protection and trademark solutions. We look forward to welcoming him to 
the company and the board of directors."
