David Lee, Chief Financial Officer of Impossible Foods and AppHarvest Board Member, said, "AppHarvest is working to solve the critical need for a more resilient and sustainable food supply chain — both of which are fundamental to the future of farming, our food ecosystem and our ability to ensure food security. I believe the company is building a scalable business that could revolutionize the business of food production in the United States." Dave Chen, CEO of Equilibrium Capital and AppHarvest Board Member, commented, "Jonathan Webb is exceptional at getting big complex projects done fast and with the highest precision. He is the right leader for AppHarvest's disruptive mission. Furthermore, with his leadership AppHarvest has drawn together some of the most talented individuals in the AgTech industry to drive the needed scale. I am extremely excited to see the fruits (or vegetables as the case may be!) of this team's labors, as they execute on their plans to change food production in the United States."
