"Josh and Kris bring a wealth of experience and insight to Zixi," said Zixi CEO Marc Aldrich. "Their leadership will be vital as we continue to deliver innovative solutions and help customers navigate the shifting landscape of live video distribution."

As media organisations increasingly transition to cloud-based content delivery and hybrid distribution models, Zixi's Emmy-winning software enables ultra-low latency, reliable IP video transport, reducing costs while maintaining superior video quality.
