Nurasa’s Board of Directors and team are pleased to welcome Temasek Operating Partner Alan Thompson as our interim Chief Executive Officer. Alan, equipped with nearly two decades of experience with Temasek, succeeds Mathys Boeren, who stepped down as CEO on 14 November 2022.

Alan has held various senior leadership positions within Temasek, having served as Joint Head of Strategic Development, Senior Managing Director of the Enterprise Development Group, Joint Head of Private Equity Investments, and Managing Director of Portfolio Management, among other roles.

Prior to joining Temasek in 2004, Alan gained extensive senior management experience in strategy consulting and private equity across a wide range of industries in Southeast Asia, Australia and South Africa.

“Alan is an outstanding leader, with deep senior management experience and the proven capability to steer Nurasa and the team, while the company evolves and we conduct a search for our next CEO,” said Pradeep Pant, Chairman of Nurasa’s Board of Directors. “We are committed to undertaking a smooth leadership transition to ensure Nurasa’s continuing growth, for our partners, clients and employees.”

“On behalf of the Nurasa board members and management, we would like to thank Mathys for his contributions in the past year,” Pant continued. “We look forward to working with Alan, our partners, and the Nurasa team, as we continue to execute on our shared strategic vision of accelerating access to sustainable foods across Asia.”
