BrandPilot AI Announces Appointment of Seif Khemaissia as Chief Growth Officer
Former CRO John Beresford Joins Advisory Board
Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 9, 2026) - BrandPilot AI Inc. (CSE: BPAI) (OTCQB: BPAIF) ("BrandPilot" or the "Company"), a performance marketing technology company focused on improving efficiency in digital advertising, today announced it has appointed Mr. Seif Khemaissia as its Chief Growth Officer, succeeding Mr. John Beresford, who is leaving the Company to pursue an opportunity in a different sector. Mr. Beresford will remain with the Company in an advisory capacity.
Brandon Mina, Chief Executive Officer of BrandPilot AI, commented, "Attracting someone of Seif's calibre reflects BrandPilot's growing reputation as a strategic technology partner in the programmatic advertising sector. Seif brings extensive experience launching and scaling technology and data offerings for advertisers, along with a deep network across leading advertising agencies. With growing recognition of the fraud, waste and abuse challenge in digital advertising, Seif's appointment will help accelerate our growth by expanding the reach of BrandPilot's performance-based solutions. I also want to thank John for his contributions over the past two years in helping build a pipeline now representing more than $20 million in potential revenue, and I'm pleased he will continue supporting the Company as an advisor."
Mr. Khemaissia added, "The moment Brandon walked me through BrandPilot's approach to eliminating fraud, waste and abuse within digital media, the opportunity was clear. A 100% performance-based model that demonstrably improves return on ad spend - without asking advertisers for additional budget - is a genuinely differentiated value proposition. I'm excited to work alongside Brandon and the team to accelerate what is already meaningful commercial momentum."
