Exegy Strengthens Product Leadership with Key Executive Promotion and Strategic Hire

ST. LOUIS, MO, NEW YORK, NY – October 1, 2025 Exegy, a global leader in low-latency trading solutions and enterprise market data, today announced two pivotal appointments that underscore the company’s commitment to product innovation and leadership. Laurent de Barry has been promoted to Chief Product Officer (CPO), and Jogesh Menon has joined Exegy as Director for the Axiom market data as-a-service offering. 

Exegy’s corporate strategy is anchored by two pillars: low-latency trading solutions and enterprise market data solutions. The latest leadership moves reinforce Exegy’s dedication to advancing the client experience on both fronts with world-class expertise and cutting-edge technology. 

Laurent de Barry Named Chief Product Officer 

Laurent de Barry steps into the role of Chief Product Officer, reporting directly to David Taylor, Chief Executive Officer.  As a co-founder of Enyx, a leader in ultra-low latency FPGA trading solutions that was acquired by Exegy in June 2022, Laurent has been instrumental in shaping the recent expansion of Exegy’s FPGA-based product portfolio.  Based in London, Laurent joins Exegy’s Executive Leadership Team and will collaborate closely with the Board of Directors. He will spearhead the company’s low-latency trading systems strategy, including the development and launch of innovative products such as the Exegy Nexus appliance and Nexus NIC solutions, which have generated significant excitement in the marketplace. 

“Laurent’s proven expertise, integrity, and persuasive communication have earned the trust and admiration of Exegy’s clients worldwide. His creativity and relentless work ethic continue to set a high standard for our global team, driving go-to-market success and fostering a culture of excellence,” says Taylor. 

Jogesh Menon Joins as Product Director for Axiom 

Exegy also welcomes Jogesh Menon as Director for the Axiom consolidated feed, the cornerstone of Exegy’s enterprise market data portfolio.  Jogesh most recently served as Head of Electronic Trading Development at Royal Bank of Canada and previously held technical leadership and development roles at Deutsche Bank, Barclays Capital, and Susquehanna International Group. At Exegy, he reports directly to Arnaud Derasse, Chief Technology Officer, who leads the enterprise market data strategy pillar. With extensive experience in product management and market data solutions, Jogesh will drive the evolution of Axiom, delivering enhanced value to clients seeking robust, scalable market data as-a-service. 

“Jogesh’s broad technical expertise acquired by working within both buy-side and sell-side firms is invaluable to our pursuit of delivering superior client experiences and innovation with our Axiom enterprise market data solutions,” says Derasse.   

These appointments reflect Exegy’s ongoing investment in product leadership and its unwavering focus on delivering innovative solutions for the financial markets. By strengthening its executive team and product management capabilities, Exegy is well-positioned to accelerate growth and support clients in navigating the evolving landscape of trading and market data.
