After three-plus years as chief sales officer at Premier Retail Networks [1], D. Scott Karnedy has taken the position as chief revenue officer for a company founded by Ted Leonsis with board support from Steve & Jean Case, Terry Semel, Miles Gilburne, Tige Savage, NEA, and Comcast.
Karnedy says that SnagFilms [2] and Indiewire [3] are the leaders in independent films and documentaries in the online video space.
“It is a new kind of media company in a fast growing sector,” says Karnedy. “I was introduced to my new boss – Rick Allen, CEO and co-founder, by my old boss Hugh Panero, who advises for the venture. They, along with the rest of the team make this a phenomenal opportunity that I could not pass up.”
Karnedy is taking a couple of weeks off and starting in mid-February .
