The board of directors of Agile Content has proposed the appointment of José Antonio López Muñoz as an independent director and new VP of the board of directors.
He will hold a non-executive position, beginning after his endorsement at the next board meeting on June 30.
López Muñoz has more than 25 years of experience in the information communication technology (ICT) sector and held multiple senior management positions in multinational companies such as Auna, Amena and Ericsson. Most recently, he has been appointed CEO of Lyntia, Spain’s leading operator of fibre wholesale services.
In the last 10 years, he has served as president and CEO of Ericsson Spain and Portugal and as a member of the board of directors for Ericsson´s European and Latin American markets.
Agile Content believes his experience at Ericsson will be a driving factor in reinforcing its consolidation of the European OTT technology market and will complement the recent acquisition of Edgeware as the company integrates its team in Sweden.
Commenting on the appointment, Hernán Scapusio, CEO of Agile Content Group, said: “The incorporation of López Muñoz comes at a time of strategic growth and new corporate governance for the group, and in a moment of consolidation for the European OTT technology market. We aim to be the partner of telecom operators globally and help them optimize their television business with the expertise of relevant professionals in the sector”.
