American Stephen Pagliuca is co-chair of Bain Capital, which recently acquired Deltatre
Deltatre has named Stephen Pagliuca as chairman of the board following its acquisition by Bain Capital and Nextalia SGR.
Pagliuca is co-chair of Bain Capital, and has a further presence in sport as the managing general partner and co-owner of the NBA’s Boston Celtics and Serie A’s Atalanta.
Deltatre provides streaming and website services to organisations throughout sport, including FIFA, UEFA, Discovery, the BBC, Channel 4, BT Sport, the Premier League, and more. Bain and Nextalia acquired it for between $700m and $900m (£617m - £794m) earlier this year.
Deltatre also replaced its CEO less than 12 months ago, with former chief commercial officer and deputy CEO Andrea Marini replacing the retiring Giampiero Rinaudo in the role last November.
Pagliuca said: “I have followed Deltatre’s journey for years and the growth it has experienced as a provider of leading media technology solutions - particularly in North America - is nothing short of remarkable. The company is at the forefront of a transformational shift in how consumers engage with content. Its investments across video streaming, fan data, and broadcast technology have positioned it well to capture new markets. I’m proud to take on the role of chairman and to help Andrea unleash the full potential of Deltatre as a unique, trusted, and proven brand.”
Marini added: “There is no person I trust more than Stephen to take on the role of chairman of the board. His credentials are unmatched, and he will provide tremendous value to Deltatre as we embark on this new chapter in our company history. It is an incredibly exciting time in the sport and media sector with a huge opportunity to drive innovation across the entire ecosystem. I look forward to working closely with Stephen - and the wider team at Bain Capital - as we continue to deliver on our mission of transforming fan experiences.”
