Riverview Bank Corp just brought on two sharp new board members for both the bank and the holding company, effective right away. Kharosh Zemini and John Gerard joined to boost strategic growth and local ties. Zemani co-founded Loro, a tech firm using AI to track time for big-law, accounting, and consulting outfits worldwide. They've pulled in over $150 million in funding. Before that, he handled business development as vice president at Baylor, an investment firm in the Bay Area. Gerard runs Quail Homes in Vancouver, where he's built more than 3,000 homes and developed over 2,000 lots since 1989. His focus hits empty nesters and multi-generational living, and he's a former president of the Building Industry Association. These picks add tech savvy and real estate muscle, blending innovation with community roots. Zemani's got degrees from UC Berkeley, including an MBA from Haas, while Gerard holds an accounting degree from Linfield University. Gerard also started careers in construction northwest, a nonprofit putting trade programs
in high schools to train kids for skilled jobs. Moves like this keep Riverview ahead in the changing market. That's the story for today. Canada News Today, Driven by AI, I'm Corey with the story.
