The search is on, we are hiring! I plan to step down as ACID’s CEO on June 30^th – it seems only a moment ago, actually, 25 years, after a group of design enthusiasts sat in Adam Aaronson’s hot-as-hell glass studio plotting and planning and a lot of chilled wine was drunk to keep cool! At each meeting we would plan to change the world because we were outraged at the copycat culture! Did we? Hopefully yes, but there is much more to be done! Time will tell.

Future-proofing the next ACID chapter is critical. Who is this person? In my view someone who is a successful business entrepreneur, shares a passion about the preservation of original design and has inexhaustible enthusiasm to march us resolutely into the future with energy.

I will remain as Chairman during the transition period and to further our resolute mission to make the intentional infringement of an unregistered design a crime. See Nick Kounoupias’ summary on Pages 4 and 5 in our latest newsletter about the inexplicable opposition by Government (IPO) and their consistent failure to provide evidence for their assertion that the introduction of criminal provisions for the intentional infringement of an unregistered design would/could be, “Chilling for innovation and lead to business uncertainty”.

Please write to me at [email protected] if you are this person or you can recommend ACID’s next “terrier”.
