i6 Group Appoints Harald Eisenaecher as Chair of the Board

Manchester, UK, 25th September 2026. i6 Group, the category leader in digital fuel management for the aviation industry, today announced the appointment of Harald Eisenaecher as Chair of its Board of Directors.

i6's cloud platform digitizes the aviation fuel supply chain from refinery to wing-tip. It runs at more than 300 airports and serves airlines including British Airways, JetBlue, KLM and Southwest Airlines. In October 2025 the company closed a $20 million Series B led by Yttrium, with participation from International Airlines Group (IAG), Shell Ventures and World Kinect.

Harald brings a record of scaling technology businesses in aviation and travel. As an executive he spent more than 20 years at the intersection of travel, technology and aviation.

He has been a non-executive director of easyJet plc since 2022, where he chairs the Safety and Operational Readiness Committee. He is also a non-executive director at Omnevo GmbH and Chairman of the Board at Mimi Hearing Technologies.

Harald Eisenaecher, Chair of the Board at i6 Group: "Airlines have spent two decades digitizing revenue, scheduling and maintenance. Fuel data and the fuel supply chain have lagged, and that affects cost, emissions and operational risk. i6 has the deployments, the customer base and the data to set the standard for how this industry manages fuel. My focus as Chair will be helping the board and the management team to reach the next level of growth."

Alex Mattos, CEO and Co-Founder at i6 Group: "Fuel is the largest variable cost in aviation and still one of the least instrumented parts of the operation. Harald understands why that is a board-level problem and can unlock significant efficiencies. He has run the commercial side of this industry as an executive and he now governs it from the board level of technology and aviation companies. That combination is rare, and we look forward to working with him.

Tim Kindt, Partner at Yttrium: "Harald has scaled technology companies and knows aviation from the inside, which is exactly the combination i6 needs as it expands internationally. On behalf of the board and shareholders, I'm delighted to welcome him on board."
