Brightcove Appoints New Board Members
12/04/2018
In addition to Jeff Ray joining us as CEO and as a Director, we are delighted to have two new, highly talented professionals join our Board," said Gary Haroian, Chairman of Brightcove's Board of Directors. Both Tom and Kristin have significant experience and a host of relevant skills that will enhance Brightcove's Board and help shape the company's future.
With his combined experience as Chairman of the FCC and entrepreneurial history in the private telecommunications sector, Tom is intimately familiar with the challenges and opportunities that exist within our markets. Mr. Haroian continued, We are also excited to have an executive with Kristin's deep operational and strategy experience at one of the world's top media companies join our Board. Her experience with Viacom will be invaluable to Brightcove during a time of evolving business models and rapid change in the media industry. On behalf of the entire Board, I look forward to continuing our value-enhancing efforts alongside our new directors.
I am extremely excited to join Brightcove's Board of Directors, said Mr. Wheeler. I believe there are significant opportunities to create value, and I am eager to work alongside my fellow Directors to enhance the Company's competitive position for long-term success.
With a differentiated product portfolio, unrivaled breadth of functionality, and deep experience implementing solutions for both media companies and enterprises around the world, Brightcove is well positioned to take advantage of the evolving changes in the video market, said Ms. Frank. I look forward to helping the company achieve its full potential as it continues to scale and grow its offerings.
In conjunction with the three new director appointments, David Orfao, Managing Partner at General Catalyst and an early investor in Brightcove, will be stepping down from his position as a Director. David has been an invaluable member of the Board since the company's earliest days, through the IPO and beyond, said Mr. Haroian. We thank him for his many years of extraordinary contributions and outstanding leadership.
With the appointments of Mr. Wheeler, Ms. Frank and Mr. Ray, alongside Mr. Orfao's resignation, Brightcove's Board of Directors now consists of eight members, six of whom are independent. Mr. Wheeler and Mr. Ray will be included in the company s slate of nominees for election to the Board at the 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and Ms. Frank will be included in the company's slate of nominees for election to the Board at the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
