US subscription video-on-demand (VOD) provider Netflix which rolled out its service in several additional European countries in September 2014 has apparently found a specialist to handle its content acquisition for the European market.
Kai Finke will take over the position, reports German trade magazine Kontakter with reference to industry sources. The VOD expert is currently employed by Telepool, the licensing and sales subsidiary of German public broadcaster ARD’s subsidiaries BR, MDR and SWR as well as Swiss public broadcaster SRG.
According to the sources, Finke will relocate his place of work from Munich to Los Angeles for the new occupation.
