Based in New York City, Henry Ahn will oversee FuboTV’s content strategy and licensing, as well as business development. He will report directly to FuboTV co-founder and chief executive David Gandler. Ahn will transition from his current role on the FuboTV board of directors in order to take on the new position. He has been a member of the FuboTV board since July 2020.
Ahn’s previous experience includes over two and a half years as president of distribution and content partnerships at Univision Communications, and almost seven years as president of content distribution and marketing for Scripps Network Interactive. His other roles have included executive vice-president of TV networks distribution for NBC Universal, senior vice-president of affiliates sales at NBCU Cable Networks, and director finance and administration at NBC Cable.
“I am thrilled to be working with David and the entire FuboTV team even more closely going forward,” Ahn said. “Ever since my involvement with FuboTV, which goes back even before I joined the board in 2020, I was impressed by David and his team, who have consistently out-delivered results in the fast-growing streaming business.”
Meanwhile, FuboTV has appointed former National Football League (NFL) executive Julie Haddon to its board of directors. Haddon, who is an owner of the Chicago Red Stars of the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL), will also join the board’s audit committee with immediate effect.
“Julie is an incredibly respected sports, media, and tech business leader who has built global audiences for some of the world’s biggest leagues and brands,” Gandler said. “I have no doubt Julie will bring a valuable perspective to FuboTV as we aim to transform the TV space for consumers while providing value to our shareholders. I’m looking forward to working closely with Julie and welcoming her to FuboTV’s board of directors.”
