Matt Hulett
RealNetworks tonight confirmed that it has hired Matt Hulett, the former CEO of online advertising startup Mpire, as its new chief revenue officer for RealGames North America. It's a homecoming for Hulett, a former Expedia and AtomShockwave executive who worked as a RealNetworks group manager earlier in his career.
“Matt has a strong track record of developing and leading successful ecommerce companies,” said John Barbour, president of RealGames, in a statement released by the company. “We are thrilled to add an executive of his quality and experience to our team and are sure he will have a very positive impact on our North American businesses.”
RealNetworks described Hulett's job as a new position that will be instrumental in the company's syndication and direct-to-consumer games segments. Technology news site Xconomy, citing anonymous sources, last week broke the news that Hulett was joining RealGames.
