Gustafsson quits as CEO of Darktrace after sale

Gustafsson, one of the best-known figures in the UK tech industry, founded Darktrace in Cambridge in 2013 with backing from the late billionaire Mike Lynch's Invoke Capital.

In April, Thoma Bravo, which walked away from previous takeover talks in 2022, agreed a deal for the London-listed company that had been considered by analysts to be undervalued by investors. Gustafsson is to step down immediately and will be replaced by Jill Popelka, Darktrace's chief operating officer.
