Before joining the board at Opus 2 in 2019, Coen was CEO of the FinTech firm Dovetail for more than a decade until its 2017 acquisition by Fiserv, where Coen remained as president of enterprise payment solutions. Hired by the VC- and angel-backed Dovetail in 2007, Coen led the company to a market-leading position with financial institutions around the world exceeding 30% CAGR over 10 years. Coen's career—which includes leadership and board positions in a range of organizations —has consistently focused on delivering business-driven digital transformation to customers in a way that allows them to drive real business value, minimize risk and remain nimble and responsive to change. "Our success to date has been driven by our people and culture and these remain key as we expand," said Smith-Bernal. "Martin brings a set of skills and experience that complement my own. We are growing fast, with more than 180 full-time employees worldwide, and the legal market is increasingly global. In the midst of dramatic, technology-focused changes in the practice of law, Martin understands that it's crucial to stay close to the communities we serve, to partner closely with our clients, and to scale in a way that ensures we continue to deliver market leading services."
