NEW YORK and LONDON and PARIS, Feb. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — NovaSparks, the leading field programmable gate array (FPGA) market data company, today announced the strategic expansion of its leadership team with the appointment of Estelle Berbach as chief financial officer and the promotion of Loïc Maitre to vice president of engineering. This move comes on the heels of strengthening the sales organization with the arrival of Sapna Swaly and Clément Pelletier to manage the European and APAC operations, respectively.

“Estelle and Loïc are both talented leaders who bring a diverse range of skills essential for our next phase of growth,” said Luc Burgun, chief executive officer and president of NovaSparks. “They will play a pivotal role in executing our long-term strategy to become the de-facto provider of ultra-low latency market data solutions for the world’s most competitive trading firms.”

Prior to joining NovaSparks, she served as financial controller at Socotec Equipements, a leader in technical inspection and verification. Berbach also has ten years of experience in the FPGA emulation division of Synopsys, a prominent name in the electronic design automation (EDA) space.

Loïc Maitre, a seasoned hardware leader who joined NovaSparks in 2016, has been promoted to vice president of engineering. During his tenure, Maitre held various roles within the R&D organization, including hardware manager, FPGA manager, and tick-to-trade project manager. Before joining NovaSparks, he honed his skills as a hardware development engineer at Imagination Technologies, a leader in Graphics IP products, in the United Kingdom.

Burgun continued, “I have had the pleasure of working with Estelle previously, and her experience will be invaluable in navigating the financial complexities and reporting of a rapidly growing company. Loïc has pioneered highly innovative technology and established strong relationships with key customers. His positive attitude and ability to tackle customer challenges will propel our R&D team to even greater heights. Together with the additions of Sapna Swaly and Clément Pelletier to our sales team, this new leadership structure positions NovaSparks for continued success in the years to come.”
