Eproval Appoints Jonathan Thompson as Chief Executive Officer
Eproval is pleased to announce that Jonathan Thompson has been appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
A founding member of Eproval, Jonathan has played a central role in shaping the company since its inception in 2015.
He has led Eproval’s business development and go-to-market strategy from the very beginning—guiding the organization from an early focus on municipal special events to a robust permitting solution now serving a wide range of sectors and permit types.
Throughout Eproval’s growth, Jonathan has been responsible for building long-standing client relationships and advancing the company’s core mission: helping local governments and public agencies modernize permitting processes, improve customer experiences, and operate with greater confidence and efficiency.
Working closely with these organizations has been instrumental in Eproval’s evolution, ensuring the solution is grounded in real-world operational needs and continually informed by emerging industry benchmarks and best practices in permitting excellence.
“We’re incredibly proud of what we’ve built together and energized by the journey ahead,” says Jonathan Thompson. “As Eproval continues to grow and evolve, this leadership step reinforces our commitment to continually learning, improving, and delivering higher permitting standards for our clients and partners.”
Key partnerships
Eproval’s progress has also been shaped by strong industry partnerships.
Collaborations with organizations such as Special Event and Safety Seminars and the Municipal Special Event Summit have been instrumental in connecting Eproval with the broader special event and safety community, deepening industry insight, and fostering shared learning across jurisdictions.
Looking forward
This leadership transition is made with the full support of Eproval’s experienced management team and reflects a shared commitment to collaboration, execution, and delivering exceptional value to customers.
As CEO, Jonathan will focus on leading the strategic direction of the organization, including strengthening Eproval’s culture and values, continuing to build a world-class team, and ensuring the company remains well positioned to serve its clients and partners.
With its specialized focus and deep industry expertise, Eproval is uniquely positioned to support the future of special event and film permitting.
Eproval is proud of what has been accomplished to date and looks forward to the next chapter under Jonathan’s leadership.
