Telestream names Benjamin Desbois CEO as Dan Castles shifts roles

Telestream is handing day-to-day leadership to a company insider, which usually signals continuity rather than a strategic reset. The move also formalizes a split between operational management under Benjamin Desbois and board-level oversight under co-founder Dan Castles. For streaming infrastructure buyers and partners, the key signal is whether Telestream’s product and growth priorities change under Desbois or remain aligned with the strategy he already owned as chief growth and strategy officer.
