“On behalf of the Imagine Communications team, I would like to thank Finance Monthly for this recognition of our tireless work over the past twelve months,” said Mr. Vogt. “The industry is at a tipping point as broadcasters and MVPDs migrate away from proprietary legacy infrastructure and move toward cloud-based, software-defined networks and workflows to improve their growth, flexibility and profitability in a TV Everywhere world. In order to lead our customers through this period of significant change, we have moved quickly to align our strategy, production direction and technology ecosystem with today’s transformational industry trends. Building on this foundation through strategic acquisitions and significant organic investment, we are ideally positioned to guide the industry to this virtualized future while enabling a smooth transition for our customers.”

These extraordinary leaders have shown strategic foresight and management at organizations that have had deep beneficial impact on the community.

“The success of every organization is down to the depth of talent that it is able to attract and the ability of a CEO to deliver commercial success by unlocking that talent,” said Mark Palmer, Editor-in-chief of Finance Monthly. “Charlie Vogt and the CEOs recognized in this year’s Finance Monthly CEO Awards publication are proven corporate leaders who deliver results and have achieved considerable success in their respective sectors.”
