Darren Feher Joins Conviva As President/CEO
Conviva, an online video solutions provider, has appointed Darren Feher to president and CEO, effective immediately. Most recently EVP and chief technology officer for NBC Universal, Feher succeeds company co-founder Dr. Hui Zhang who will assume the role of chief scientist, and will focus on driving product direction and innovation.

Feher spent nearly a decade at General Electric (GE) and NBC Universal and is regarded as the driving force behind the technical convergence of traditional television and digital media that helped position NBC Universal as a global leader. He is also credited with the company's advancements in online video, viral and social communities, interactive television, games, and mobile experiences.

Additionally, Feher was instrumental in the fight against digital piracy with extensive technical and policy work resulting in the widespread adoption of video fingerprinting. The foundation Feher built paved the way for many groundbreaking digital firsts for the $17B media giant such as the multi-platform coverage of the 2008 Beijing Olympic games, the launch of hulu.com, live voting on network and cable TV and the delivery of content to mobile carriers and iTunes.

While at GE, Feher held several technology leadership roles and was a Six Sigma Quality Leader focused on delivering defect-free technologies using statistical process control. He also spent five years as an Army Signal Officer.
