OTTAWA, ONTARIO, April 4, 2024 – Assent Inc. (Assent), a leading solution provider in supply chain sustainability management, announced today Tony Farinaro as Chief Revenue Officer (CRO) and member of the company’s leadership team. Farinaro will lead Assent’s global sales, revenue operations and enablement, regulatory and sustainability teams that work with Assent clients to deploy product compliance and ESG solutions through the industry-leading Assent Supply Chain Sustainability Platform.
Based in New Jersey, Farinaro brings almost 40 years of leadership experience in sales, marketing, and engineering services to Assent. Most recently, he served as CRO of Exostar, a secure collaboration and risk management software and solution provider for enterprises and their suppliers and trading partners across the aerospace and defense, life sciences and healthcare sectors. Prior to that, he held senior sales and services leadership positions at Digital.AI, CollabNet, and Actel, where he led the sales of enterprise software and the design of complex technology products for customers in the manufacturing and IT industries.
“Tony has an incredible track record of success in our key markets with a breadth of experience driving digital transformation” said Andrew Waitman, Assent CEO. “We continue to see that manufacturers are facing significant pressure from evolving regulations that require unprecedented visibility into their supply chains.

Together we will continue to strengthen our leading market position, deliver exceptional value to our customers and fuel our company’s next stage of growth.”
