Virtual Festivals announce new board
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 30 July 2010
Festivals website Virtual Festivals has expanded its board as part of a plan to, and I quote, “accelerate the global expansion of the business”.
There are five new directors joining the company, including Andy Wood and Neil Sullivan from Silver Bullet Entertainment, Julian Topham and Andrew Topham from Sports Vision, and Steve Wild from Unication. The site’s founder Steve Jenner will also sit on the new board.
Wild will become COO, and he told CMU: “The new team will build on what has been developed over ten years and escalate the growth of a unique scalable business. This is a great opportunity to lead Virtual Festivals to accentuate it’s expertise as the lead festival portal by generating more and better content and enabling the right context for commercial partners”.
Jenner added: “I’m delighted to have five new star players on board who have a real vision and passion for Virtual Festivals’ future, with the proven ability to deliver it. This is the optimum route for ensuring that this business not only achieves its objectives but does so with its brand integrity fully intact and that’s the most important thing”.
