Allen Dickson joins as vice president of Media, EMEA, after successful stints at RealNetworks, Rhapsody (Napster), and Nielsen

Brightcove Inc. (NASDAQ: BCOV), the leading provider of cloud services for video, today announced the hiring of Allen Dickson as vice president of media, EMEA. Dickson will lead the Media business in Europe, which includes responsibility for  new and existing Media business across the region.

Dickson brings 15 years of experience working with European customers in executive roles at technology and digital media companies like RealNetworks, Rhapsody (Napster), and Nielsen. Previous to joining Brightcove, Dickson spent 10 years in a variety of leadership roles at RealNetworks, a provider of Internet streaming media delivery software and services. In his most recent role, Dickson was vice president of media entertainment for RealNetworks in Europe and worked with a broad spectrum of mobile customers to deliver digital music services. Focusing on the distribution and adoption of the new personal media cloud service, Dickson worked to resolve the complexity of video while pioneering story creation automation by intelligently combining location, photos, video, and music.

“We are thrilled to have Allen on board to oversee our existing business while working to aggressively grow our Media business in Europe. Throughout his career, Allen has continually proven his ability to build teams across the region and execute on goals,” Mark Blair, senior vice president, international at Brightcove, said. “He brings an impressive track record with vast  knowledge and experience in the video ecosystem including codecs, encoding, streaming and player software technology.
