Deltatre, a leading global provider of streaming, digital, data and graphics solutions for the sports and media industries, today announced that Chief Executive Officer Andrea Marini will step down after five years in the role and more than 15 years with the company. He will transition to Deputy Chairman of the Group, continuing to support Deltatre’s long-term strategy and client relationships.

Following a global search process led by Marini and majority shareholder Bain Capital, the company has appointed Marc Watson as Chief Executive Officer and Kashmir Sohi as Chief Financial Officer to lead the company into its next phase of growth.

Marc Watson brings extensive experience across the media and entertainment, telecom, sport, and technology sectors. He previously served as Chief Executive Officer, TV Group at BT, where he led the launch of the YouView television platform and BT Sport, now rebranded as TNT Sports. He then went on to become Co-founder and CEO of ELEVEN Sports Group, and most recently served as Chief Commercial Officer at DAZN Group, where he led global commercial strategy and oversaw a multi-billion-pound content investment programme.

Kashmir Sohi also joins Deltatre as Chief Financial Officer, bringing more than two decades of international leadership experience across private equity-backed, venture-funded, and listed businesses. He most recently served as CFO and Board Director of PEI Group.

"It has been an extraordinary journey so far with Deltatre," said Andrea Marini, Deputy Chairman of Deltatre Group. "Following the successful acquisition of Endeavor Streaming, this is the right moment to welcome a new CEO. I look forward to supporting Marc, Kashmir, and the wider team.”

"With the recent acquisition of Endeavor Streaming, and a breadth of products, technology, and experience built over four decades, the company is strongly positioned," said Marc Watson, Chief Executive Officer of Deltatre. "I’ve known Deltatre and so many of the great people here for years, and I am excited to be leading the business through the next phase of its growth.”

These leadership appointments signal the next phase in Deltatre’s evolution, as the company builds on the acquisition of Endeavor Streaming and continues to scale as the only partner offering OTT and digital platforms with data, graphics, officiating, and strategy and growth services all under one roof.
