\u201cI am thrilled to be joining ATG, an organization I have admired for a long time as a theatre enthusiast, and to be leading the company as it pursues its exciting next chapter of growth,\u201d said Ted Stimpson. \u201cNow is a great time to further accelerate ATG\u2019s growth strategy and reinforce ATG\u2019s position as a global leader in live entertainment through continued investment in our venues, state-of-the-art ticketing, digital marketing and new customer experiences. I look forward to working with the management team, including Chief Operating Officer Nick Potter and Global Content & Creative Director Michael Lynas, along with ATG\u2019s partners Providence and TEG, and my new colleagues around the world, as we continue to delight audiences.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are pleased to welcome Ted, an outstanding leader with proven experience in delivering strategic and operational excellence at tech-enabled consumer facing businesses. We were impressed with Ted\u2019s enthusiasm for live events and creating memorable experiences for customers. We look forward to working together,\u201d said Andrew Tisdale, ATG Board Member & Senior Managing Director at Providence. \u201cAt the same time, on behalf of everyone at Providence and ATG, I want to thank Mark for his many contributions over the years and look forward to continuing to work with him as a Senior Advisor to Providence. During his seven years as CEO, Mark spearheaded over 3x revenue growth by significantly expanding the Group\u2019s venues from 40 to 64, as well as through organic growth and a firm commitment to outstanding programming. His leadership is testament to his passion, energy and dedication, no more so than through the unprecedented challenge of global pandemic.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stimpson brings more than 3 decades of leadership experience to his new role at ATG. He most recently served as CEO of Go City, an attractions marketing company, and has also held Board and Advisory roles with Go City, Hellotickets, Stasher, Unplugged, and Virgin Experience Days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
