Atari Appoints David Pierce as CEO |
Ó
Video games publisher Atari has appointed the entertainment industry veteran David Pierce as its new President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) today. Mr Pierce will be assuming the responsibilities of CEO previously held by Bruno Bonnell effective immediately. With this new role, Pierce will take full operational management of Atari and will be discussing the strategic objectives of the Company with Mr Bonnell.
Pierce seems fitting for the job of controlling one of the most influential games publishers since the market began. With a CV which includes more than 20 years of executive management experience with major entertainment companies such as Universal Pictures, MGM, Sony Pictures and Sony Music Entertainment.
"Atari has been a cornerstone of a global cultural movement that forever changed how we experience entertainment. It's an honor for me to have the opportunity to contribute to Atari's exciting future," said Mr. Pierce. "There's a heritage of expectation that demands a high level of responsibility to our consumers and the interactive entertainment industry. I look forward to collaborating with the gifted and passionate individuals at Atari to build on that heritage and raise the bar on what consumers can expect."
The previous CEO, Bruno Bonnell, also said that "David has spent his career in the entertainment business and has a clear understanding and appreciation for our consumers. His leadership skills, first-hand operational execution and keen focus on profitability and investment value make him the ideal person to lead Atari." We'll see if and this new leadership reshuffle effects th Atari camp within the weeks to come.
