2G Digital, a specialist in digital supply chain solutions and the top-rated iTunes preferred digital media services provider, today announces that current COO Stephen Buchsbaum has been appointed CEO and will serve as a member of the company’s Board of Directors.
Buchsbaum, who has been leading 2G Digital since last November, has supervised strategic planning and implemented changes that have increased revenues steadily. He has also spearheaded strategic expansion, adding staff and capabilities at the company’s Burbank headquarters, and forging partnerships that have extended its reach to New York and London.
“Stephen has proven to be a dynamic leader and we are pleased to announce his appointment as CEO,” said John B. Wilson, Chairman of the Board, 2G Digital. “Under his guidance, 2G has improved quality while simultaneously expanding our global reach. We look forward to working with him as a new member of our Board of Directors.”
A strong technical infrastructure and sound financial backing have enabled 2G Digital to develop new lines of business, implement new technologies and enter into profitable strategic alliances, according to Buchsbaum. “We’ve made a lot of progress and will continue to widen the scope of our customer outreach and technical capabilities,” he said. “Ongoing relationships with studios and independent production companies, including Fox, Warner Bros., Disney, Lionsgate and Sony, coupled with our preferred status as a vendor for iTunes, Netflix, Google Play, and Amazon, have positioned us well for the coming years.”
Prior to joining 2G Digital, Buchsbaum served as a production and post-production consultant and managing partner at Traveling Light Partners, an independent film and television production company. Previously, he served for six years as President of The Post Group and CEO of its affiliates, Lighting Media and iO Film. During his tenure, The Post Group became the first independent post house to implement a complete file-based workflow for production and distribution. His background also includes service as President of Video Research Corporation and Vice President General Manager of All Post.
Coming off the celebration of its 20th anniversary, 2G Digital is a leading independent provider of post-production and distribution services, including mastering and versioning, transcoding and encoding, and digital delivery.
