BURLINGTON, Mass., March 15, 2018 -- Nuance Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ:NUAN) today announced that William H. Janeway has retired from the Company’s Board of Directors. Nuance’s Board of Directors now consists of seven members, all of whom are independent directors.
Mr. Janeway joined the Nuance Board of Directors in April 2004 when he was Vice Chairman at Warburg Pincus. He was responsible for and oversaw Warburg Pincus’ investment in Nuance. During his years of service on the Nuance Board, Mr. Janeway was a vital, guiding influence on the Company’s strategy.
