Zixi has announced the appointment of Marc Aldrich as the company's new chief executive officer, effective from 1st October.

He takes over from Gordon Brooks, who led Zixi for more than seven years and moves to the position of executive chairman.

Aldrich joins the company after a stint at ThinkAnalytics, and previously served as general manager of the media and entertainment industry business unit at Amazon Web Services.

Zixi has already built a reputation for innovation and reliability supporting high value media workflows across our industry, said Brooks about the appointment. I worked closely with Marc for five years while he was at AWS and experienced his integrity and broad industry knowledge firsthand. Marc's experience is exactly what we sought to propel the business into next-level growth. I look forward to my close collaboration with Marc and continued partnership with the Clearhaven Partners team.

It's an honour to join Zixi as CEO, added Aldrich. I've known and admired Zixi for many years, notably in my prior role at AWS. Zixi's differentiated software has widespread applicability for reliable, cost-efficient software supporting media transport workflows and orchestration of high value content. There's enormous continued potential for Zixi in its next phase as we expand market presence and drive adoption to support our customers' business objectives. I look forward to working with Clearhaven Partners and Gordon as we embark on this next chapter.
