“Strong leadership in the key functions of marketing and information technology is critical to our success in accelerating our growth strategy,” said Steelberg. “Seth’s vision – paired with his unconventional experience in combining strategic quantitative data decision-making with qualitative creative ideas – makes him the ideal person for leveling up our global marketing initiatives. Fleming’s considerable experience working with complex information technology systems will serve us well as we continue to focus on expanding our technology offerings, growing our business and continuing to support our current customers and partners. Both Seth and Fleming join us at a milestone time for the company, and I look forward to working with them on helping move Veritone forward.”

Now a three-time public company CMO with a proven track record for transforming globally recognized brands, Greenberg brings more than 20 years’ expertise to Veritone. Since 2015, Greenberg has worked closely with technology startup founders, general partners of venture and private equity firms and their teams as an advisor, investor and consultant to change their trajectory with strategic advice, growth hacking, brand building and bold, forward-thinking product marketing initiatives. Greenberg most recently served as CMO for Alteryx, where he repositioned the company for growth, took Alteryx public, and established and differentiated the company as a data science and analytics leader. Previously, he spent seven years driving growth by leading digital, brand and social marketing at Intuit, responsible for TurboTax and Quickbooks.

“I’m excited to join Veritone at such a transformational time for the company,” said Greenberg. “Several things drew me to Veritone, most notably the team's passion for innovation and the opportunity to help commercialize game-changing technology and truly impact the many markets in which it operates – from media, entertainment and sports, to government and more.”

Meng is a senior IT executive with over two decades of technology leadership experience, primarily at Fortune 500 companies across various industries including technology, manufacturing, healthcare, retail and distribution for companies including Lucent Technologies, Ingram Micro, Ecolab, Federal-Mogul, Home Depot and Bertelsmann. Before joining Veritone, Fleming served as CIO since 2018 at HumanGood, a leading senior living and healthcare company. He oversaw all aspects of the company’s information technology and digitalization efforts, from strategy to operations. His deep global technology and operations background, including transformation and integration experience, will be instrumental in achieving sustainable growth for Veritone.

“I am thrilled with the prospect of leading a team of collaborative, talented individuals focused on pushing Veritone’s AI technology, security, and innovation roadmap forward,” said Meng. “These are exciting times for the company, and I believe that we are on the right path toward transforming the current and future markets we serve.”
