Datavault AI Inc. (NASDAQ: DVLT), an artificial intelligence platform company specializing in data monetization, credentialing and real-world asset tokenization, has appointed Jeffrey Tirman to its board of directors, effective Oct. 12, 2026. The appointment follows the company's recent acquisition of NYIAX Inc., which designated Tirman to the board; he previously served on NYIAX's board.
Tirman brings more than 35 years of international investment management experience, including corporate restructuring, capital strategy, acquisitions, public listings and cross-border transactions. He currently serves as CEO of Slovenia-based sporting goods manufacturer Elan d.o.o. and is the founder of Abri Capital Ltd., a private family-office investment firm.
The addition of Tirman to the board matters because it adds financial and operational depth at a time when Datavault AI is expanding its operations and evaluating opportunities to strengthen its capital structure. His background in restructuring and capital strategy could prove valuable as the company integrates NYIAX and seeks to fund growth initiatives. According to the press release, the appointment is effective immediately and is part of the integration process following the acquisition. The full details of the announcement are available in the company's official press release.
