Meanwhile Barkar, the outgoing CEO, will continue his partnership with BETER as a Board Member and Co-Founder.
Barkar said: “I decided to focus on global challenges as a Board Member and leave the CEO post a few months ago. And I am happy that together with JKR Investment Group we managed to find such an experienced manager as Gal in such a short period.
“I strongly believe that Gal will strengthen BETER. We built everything from scratch, and we did it very well. I am proud of all our achievements and look forward to even greater opportunities.”
BETER is one of the portfolio companies of JKR Investment Group. The CEO of the company, Alexander Gusev, concluded: “We believe that the new appointment will give a new great impulse to the nucleus called BETER.
