EquipmentShare announced the appointment of Damian Giangiacomo and Harley Miller to its Board of Directors, effective June 8, 2026. Giangiacomo will also serve on the board’s Audit Committee.
The appointments follow EquipmentShare’s initial public offering and coincide with the departures of board members Henry Yeagley and John Weinstein as part of what the company described as an orderly transition as a newly public company.
Giangiacomo is the co-founder and managing partner of Nexus Capital Management, a Los Angeles-based private equity firm with approximately $5 billion in assets under management. Prior to founding Nexus in 2013, he spent 13 years in the private equity group at Apollo Global Management and began his career in the mergers, acquisitions and restructurings department at Morgan Stanley. He currently serves on the board of Rent the Runway and several private companies.
Miller is the founder and chief executive officer of Left Lane Capital, a venture capital and growth equity firm established in 2019. Before launching Left Lane, he spent nine years at Insight Venture Management. Miller also has previous experience with EquipmentShare, having served on the company’s board beginning in December 2016 during its private growth stage.
Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Columbia, Missouri, EquipmentShare provides construction technology and equipment solutions across the United States. The company offers fleet management platforms, telematics devices, and an equipment rental marketplace powered by its proprietary T3 platform.
