Bibi is a perfect example of this approach. Bringing a wealth of proven experience not only in content delivery but also in forming strong networks and partnerships, Bibi will play an important strategic role in our continued expansion into the North American market and beyond.”
Content director Rich Whitworth added, “I’ve had the pleasure of crossing paths with Bibi at several events over the last 10 years – and, in between times, I’ve simply admired her work from afar. I am very much looking forward to collaborating closely with Bibi on a number of exciting projects – the details of which I am sure we’ll reveal as the year and partnership progresses!”
Bibi commented, “Texere has become what a lot of media companies aspire to be: nimble, innovative, and disruptive. I’ve been very impressed with the pace of growth that Texere has seen in its first decade – and I'm excited to join their ranks and help further accelerate their expansion in new and existing markets.”
