FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

 

NEIL GLAT APPOINTED TO FUBO’S BOARD OF DIRECTORS

 

NEW YORK – MARCH 5, 2024 – FuboTV Inc. (d/b/a/ Fubo) (NYSE: FUBO), the leading sports-first live TV streaming platform, announced today the appointment of Neil Glat to its board of directors effective immediately.

 

Glat has extensive operating and strategic experience in sports, entertainment, media and hospitality. He is the managing member of NG Strategies, LLC, providing strategic advice to sports, media and technology businesses, and most recently served as co-president, Americas for SPORTFIVE, a global sports, entertainment and marketing agency. Glat is also recognized for his significant leadership experience in professional sports, including more than seven years with the New York Jets, during which he served as president, and 15 years with the National Football League (NFL), where he oversaw corporate development and strategy, among other responsibilities.

 

“Neil’s deep experience in media and sports will bring important insight and strategic counsel to Fubo as we approach our 2025 profitability target,” said David Gandler, co-founder and CEO, Fubo. “I’m looking forward to working with Neil as we continue to scale our aggregated sports-first video bundle that provides value for consumers, advertisers, partners and shareholders alike.”

 

“I’m extremely excited about the opportunity to join Fubo’s board and to work closely with David, the executive team and the board, as the company focuses on achieving its near-term goals and strategically positioning itself for accelerated future growth,” said Glat.

 

Additionally, Pär-Jörgen (PJ) Pärson will step down from Fubo’s board to focus on his role at leading venture capital fund Northzone.

 

Continued Gandler: “I want to extend my deepest gratitude to PJ for his invaluable service to Fubo over the years. As one of our earliest investors, both PJ and Northzone have played a pivotal role in guiding Fubo through periods of extraordinary complexity and growth leading up to and including our IPO. The success we enjoy today, boasting over 1.6 million subscribers across North America and expanding operations into Europe and India, is a testament to PJ’s unwavering commitment and his early confidence in our vision. Fubo’s current achievements are, without a doubt, closely tied to PJ’s dedication and foresight.”
