Shift Names Ramu Potarazu as New CEO
Story Highlights
All-in-one cloud-based video solutions provider Shift has named Ramu Potarazu, founder of Vubiquity, as its new CEO, effective immediately. Ramu brings extensive leadership and operational experience, having served in multiple executive and board member roles throughout his career. His leadership career began at INTELSAT, a global satellite communications company, where he spent 16 years and rose to become the President and COO.
He then founded Vubiquity, which became the leader in multiplatform video services and analytics under his tenure. After the sale of Vubiquity, he was recruited to be the president and CEO of Binary Fountain, the world leader in delivering analytics for consumer and patient feedback management solutions, where he consistently increased shareholder value during his seven-plus year tenure.
“Ramu stands out as a strategic, battle-tested leader with decades of experience growing both start-ups and billion-dollar publicly traded organizations, even in some of the most challenging economic times,” said Jerry Dolinsky, Shift Media Chairman. “With his consistent record of driving long-term growth and shareholder value, Ramu is the right person to lead Shift Media into its next phase of growth.”
“Shift Media has a unique opportunity to become a leader in the cloud-based video space with its three distinct products,” said Ramu. “Video is a growth story and it’s exciting to join a company that has the potential for significant growth and market leadership for years to come. I look forward to leading the company’s talented team as we work together to take Shift Media to the next level.”
