Vimeo Names CEO

Vimeo has promoted Anjali Sud, previously general manager and senior VP of its creator business, to the post of CEO.

Sud will oversee strategy and operations for the ad-free open video platform. She takes over from interim CEO Joey Levin, who remains CEO of parent company IAC.

“Vimeo is entering an exciting chapter with a renewed focus on the core value that makes our brand special and beloved around the globe—being the number one platform to empower video creators,” said Sud. “With a world-class brand, exceptional product and thriving community, we are uniquely positioned to define new standards of storytelling and lead the $10 billion video creator market.”

Sud joined Vimeo in 2014 to lead marketing, being promoted to general manager and senior VP in 2016. She previously held positions in e-commerce and media at Amazon and Time Warner.

“Having spent the last year inside the business working closely with Anjali and the team at Vimeo, Anjali has stood out as a leader: she’s creative, confident, aggressive, and always thinks of our users first,” said Levin, CEO of IAC. “She’s a natural leader, and I expect she will build a very big business at Vimeo.”
