Soundpays, a startup whose technology enables customers to make P2P payments using inaudible sound, has appointed a new CEO this week. The Toronto-based startup’s board of directors selected Steve Doswell (pictured right) to succeed Peter Misek as CEO.

Misek, who will remain on the Soundpays board of directors, says:

Steve Doswell has been credited for shaping the growth of some of North America’s most influential and valuable companies. He’s an exceptional leader, passionate about our mission, and has an impressive history of working with start-ups at a similar stage of growth as Soundpays.

Prior to his appointment, Doswell served as CEO of Dubai-based First Information Security. He also has a history in the pharmaceutical industry and worked as chief operating officer at AOL Canada in 2007.

Soundpays debuted at FinovateFall 2015 and won Best of Show.
