Fass will work directly with Syncbak CEO Jack Perry and Chief Technology Officer Steve Maher. The plan? For their creative juice to fully develop a roadmap to both OTT and ATSC 3.0 consumer growth, thus attracting more advertisers and viewers. Fass reports to Maher.

Perry said, “Syncbak and VUit has one of the deepest benches of technology talent within the industry and we are looking forward to having Mike as part of our team to grow this brain trust even further. He has been an incredible architect of solutions that have helped so many local broadcasters build their OTT capabilities, expand their supporting technologies, and scale to new heights.”
