Amit Kapur joins KXT Energy Board as Non-Executive Director

KXT Energy has appointed Amit Kapur as Non-Executive Director, strengthening the board's financial governance and capital markets expertise with a career spanning PE-backed platforms, pension-backed infrastructure, and public company leadership across Canada and the United States.

Amit most recently served as CFO of DRI Healthcare Trust (TSX: DHT), a royalty-based investment platform focused on pharmaceutical royalties, where he led a comprehensive strategic review and rebuilt the governance model, frameworks, and go-to-market strategy. Prior to that, he was CFO of Enwave Energy Corporation, an OTPP and IFM Investors company, and VP and Treasurer of ATS Corporation, and spent a decade at GE across a variety of executive finance roles.

He currently serves on the boards of Hamilton Health Sciences and Armah Sports Company as Audit Committee Chair at both, and on the Board of Sheridan College. He holds an MBA from Cornell University, is a CFA Charterholder, a Chartered Accountant (Ontario), CPA (Illinois), and completed the Corporate Directors Program at Harvard Business School.

"Amit's experience as a CFO across infrastructure and investment platforms, including OTPP and IFM-backed assets, is directly aligned with how KXT structures and finances its projects," said Nnanna Anyanwu, CEO of KXT Energy. "His financial governance depth will be essential as we scale."

According to Andy, the Board Chairman, Amit brings a rigorous institutional perspective on capital allocation and board governance that complements KXT's ambition to mobilise significant institutional capital for African infrastructure.
