Director Appointment
ADDleisure plc, the AIM traded company formed to develop products and services in the health and leisure sectors, has appointed Paul Landau, the founder of Fitbug, to its Board as an Executive Director with immediate effect.
Paul Landau previously worked with Accenture as a management consultant advising a portfolio of clients on technology and strategy projects. Having left Accenture in 2001 to distribute an early fitness tracking solution to the gym sector, Paul then founded Fitbug in 2004 as an online personal health and well-being service. In the same year, ADDleisure invested in the concept and since that time, Paul has been developing Fitbug's technology, brand, and customer base, both in the UK and internationally.

Our recent efforts to focus the attentions of ADDleisure on the Fitbug concept mean that his tremendous energy will, I'm sure, be of huge benefit to the Company in this transitional period and we are delighted to welcome him to the Board."
