EVP, Content Distribution & Marketing, Scripps Networks Interactive
Two years into the lofty job of overseeing Scripps’ distribution strategy, Ahn has added several feathers to his already sizable cap, including the launch of TV Everywhere to well more than half (65%) of Scripps’ customers. He also led the negotiation that secured Scripps’ first online-only subscription distribution deal earlier this year, which brought hundreds of episodes from HGTV, Food Network, DIY, Cooking Channel and Travel Channel to Amazon Prime Video customers. When looking to hire a member of his team, Ahn looks for “curiosity and energy. I seek out people who care deeply and are willing to grow and learn.”
