Marc DeBevoise has been named as the new CEO & Board Director of video solutions provider Brightcove. Assuming his position on March 28, 2022, DeBevoise will succeed Jeff Ray, who will retire from his role as CEO & Board Director.
Media industry veteran DeBevoise previously served as the Chief Digital Officer of ViacomCBS, CEO & President of CBS Interactive, and held leadership roles at Starz and NBCUniversal.
In his roles at ViacomCBS, DeBevoise led the company’s unified streaming, digital and technology operations globally and was responsible for the company’s direct-to-consumer (D2C) streaming services.
