| MUMBAI:
Voom HD Networks has appointed David Alworth as vice president of operations and
program administration. He moves in from Rainbow Sports Networks where he was
vice president of operations. Along
with overseeing the operational and business affairs related activities for Voom
HD Networks' 15 HD channels, Voom's global channel, and its ongoing content sales
operations in his new role, Alworth will also take care of production negotiation
and management, content delivery, rights management and administration. He
will report directly to Voom HD Networks senior vice president of global operations
and business development Glenn Oakley. "Voom
fills an important content void within the global marketplace where the trend
toward HDTV is ascending at such a fast pace. Having Dave on board will open up
even more opportunities for audiences to experience Voom HD," says Oakley. Prior
to joining Rainbow, Alworth was executive vice president of ACTV, Inc., a digital
media company focused on interactive television and enhanced media. |
