Telestream, a global provider of digital media tools, quality monitoring and workflow solutions, has brought back Dan Castles, one of the company’s original founders, as CEO to lead the company through its next phase of growth. Scott Puopolo, who has served as CEO of Telestream since 2017, has decided to step down. Puopolo successfully developed and advanced Telestream’s strategy, which will drive the company’s growth in the years ahead.

Eli Weiss, managing director of Genstar Capital, Telestream’s majority shareholder, commented: “Scott has been a great partner to Genstar in our efforts to grow and expand Telestream. As we embark on a new decade which promises to bring fundamental changes to the broadcast industry, we are excited to have Dan rejoin Telestream to help drive its growth strategy and continue to lead the industry.”

Under Castles’ 20-year leadership, Telestream experienced consistent year-on-year revenue growth, and strong profitability.
