Kornit Digital LTD. (NASDAQ: KRNT) has appointed Nick Beighton, former Chief Executive Officer of ASOS, as a strategic advisor to the Company and its Board of Directors. The appointment aligns with the company’s focus on advancing its on-demand digital production strategy. Mr. Beighton is also expected to be nominated for election to the Board at the 2026 Annual Shareholder Meeting.

The company also indicated that it intends to nominate Mr. Beighton for election to its Board of Directors at the 2026 Annual Shareholder Meeting. His engagement is scheduled to begin on April 1, 2026.

Ronen Samuel, Chief Executive Officer of Kornit Digital, said, “Nick's experience leading a digitally native global fashion platform gives him a powerful perspective on the realities brands and retailers face today around speed, agility, and capital efficiency. As the fashion industry moves toward more demand-driven production models, his insight will help Kornit strengthen its role in enabling the next generation of global supply chains.”

Nick Beighton commented, “Kornit sits at the center of one of the most important shifts happening in fashion today. The industry is moving from inventory-heavy supply chains toward more agile, demand-driven production models. The convergence of retail, manufacturing, and on-demand fulfillment is accelerating, and Kornit is uniquely positioned to enable this transformation.”

Mr. Beighton brings experience from his 12-year tenure at ASOS, where he was involved in scaling the company into a global platform. His work included managing supply chain operations, digital transformation, and adapting to evolving retail models, including shifts toward demand-driven production. His experience also covers global fashion markets, digital supply chain systems, and the integration of retail and manufacturing processes.

The company noted that Mr. Beighton’s background provides a demand-side perspective, reflecting experience in retail and consumer-focused operations. This is expected to complement the existing composition of Kornit’s Board and provide additional insights into supply chain management, capital efficiency, and speed-to-market considerations.

Mr. Beighton will also participate in Kornit’s upcoming Konnections 2026 industry event, where industry participants are expected to discuss developments in fashion production, including on-demand manufacturing.
