In conjunction with Ms. Larsen’s appointment, the Company is consolidating its corporate marketing function, the Media Business Unit and the Digital Marketing Business Unit into a single marketing organization focused on developing Brightcove’s unified marketing and demand generation strategies.

I am excited by the tremendous opportunity for growth we see in every market segment we serve around the world.”

In addition to appointing Ms. Larsen as CMO, Brightcove is currently conducting a search for a Chief Revenue Officer, a newly created position,  to oversee the global sales organization. All customer facing direct sales, channel sales, and professional services organizations will report to this executive, who will report to the CEO.
