Omnilab moving into IPTV
Omnilab Media has appointed Tom Kennedy as executive director for the group’s digital services.
“This new role means Tom will now concentrate on bringing Omnilab Media’s group strengths to the market in a synergistic and cohesive way, in order to maximise opportunities in the digital arena […] The group will extend its focus to non-linear channels and enhanced digital services. Tom’s appointment signifies the next phase of aggressive expansion and growth for Omnilab Media in these areas,” said Omnilab managing director Christopher Mapp.
Kennedy is also the general manager of Omnilab’s broadcast and distribution services division, The Playroom. The division has gone from being a channel playout centre to a content manager, aggregator and digital distribution hub.
“It’s the perfect time to make the most of all of Omnilab Media’s considerable resources in the digital space and to highlight the fact that we can provide real, working solutions in key areas like digital cinema and IPTV,” said Kennedy.
