To Dan Castles, one of the founders of Telestream, the time has come for you to retire. It will be former Cisco executive Scott Pupolo who takes the helm of the company as the new CEO.

We have achieved a lot in the last 20 years, growing from a small team of 11 to more than 400 brilliant and dedicated employees around the world. I look forward to working with Scott, the board of directors and the rest of the executive team in a transition that ensures that the next 20 years are the most successful of all time."

For his part, Puopolo acknowledges that “Dan and I share the excitement about Telestream's bright future, and I look forward to expanding Telestream's industry leadership to support the critical business needs of our customers around the world.”

Dan Castles will continue to be involved with the company as an active member of its board of directors.
