Deltatre adds Bhavisha Mistry to develop OTT offering

Deltatre has hired Bhavisha Mistry as its senior vice president of product, video experiences.

Based in London, Mistry will report to president of video experiences Gilles Mas and be responsible for developing Deltatre’s end-to-end OTT product offerings. Deltatre currently works with Major League Soccer, NFL Game Pass, BritBox and the WWE Network across its portfolio.

This will involve working closely with market-leading third-party technology suppliers and evolving the company’s approach to creating and running the next generation of complex streaming platforms across live and on-demand sport and entertainment. 

Mistry has over 10 years’ experience in product management, particularly in the media/broadcast (OTT/VOD) streaming space. Before joining Deltatre she had been product director at Discovery, where she led the international expansion roadmaps for ‘Dplay’, and launched Discovery+ internationally (excluding the US), and on Sky Q in the UK.

Mistry also spent almost eight years at Sky, where she was heavily involved in the conception of Sky Go, and part of the subsequent launch team, leading on the Android platform.

Mistry said: “It’s an exciting time to join Deltatre, as we continue to develop our client offering, while ensuring we’re delivering products that reflect the very best in fan-engagement and innovation. I’ve always been aware of Deltatre’s reputation for efficient delivery and project management, and I hope to bring my customer facing, data-driven approach to the company.”

Mas added: “Bhavisha has an incredible track record, with experience of converting complex technical concepts into exceptional user experiences for some of the biggest names in the industry. We’re excited to see how our clients‘ fans – who are always foremost in any Deltatre product development – will benefit from Bhavisha’s expertise and drive.”
