When I joined Dalet a year ago as CEO, I was humbled by the opportunity to lead a company with such a rich heritage of innovation in the Media and Entertainment (M&E) industry. Today, as I look back on my first year, I want to reflect on our accomplishments and share the incredible transformation we are undertaking. I also want to extend my appreciation to the people who are making it all possible.

This year, we’ve embraced a bold new vision to redefine the media industry. Our goal is to empower customers with innovative, agile solutions that deliver measurable value faster than ever before. At the heart of this vision lies a simple truth: all companies are storytellers and need to manage their content effectively. From Media and Entertainment, Sports and Education to Government and Corporate sectors, we’ve established a strong footprint, helping organizations transform how they create and share their stories. By focusing on time-to-value and transformation, we aim to usher the industry into a future of efficiency, collaboration, and sustained impact.

A Year of Gratitude

First and foremost, I want to thank our incredible team at Dalet—colleagues whose dedication, creativity, and passion inspire me every day. It’s your hard work that drives our momentum and enables us to achieve extraordinary results.

I’d also like to express my heartfelt thanks to you, our customers. Your trust in us, your feedback, and your willingness to collaborate have been the bedrock of our progress. Together, we’ve pushed boundaries, explored new possibilities, and delivered solutions that meet the evolving needs of today’s media landscape.

Over the last twelve months, we have secured 77 new projects and successfully delivered 90 solutions worldwide—a clear sign of vitality and growth. Each project is a story of collaboration and innovation, and these milestones reinforce the critical role Dalet solutions play in helping customers meet the rapidly changing demands of the industry.

My time at Dalet has reaffirmed a lesson I hold dear—success is not built in isolation. It’s built through teamwork, shared vision and profound commitment to a common goal.

Leading Dalet Through Transformation

The past year has also been one of immense transformation for the company. Our mission has always been to empower media professionals with visionary and dynamic solutions built by passionate people and connected to the broader media ecosystem. Over the past year, we have taken bold strides to rethink how we deliver on that mission and lay the foundation for the future.

Our transformation is guided by a clear vision to modernize the media industry. This means moving beyond traditional ways of doing business and adopting solutions that deliver faster, more measurable results. We’ve prioritized accelerating time-to-value, ensuring that the innovations we provide impact our customers’ operations within weeks, not years. This approach reflects a deep understanding of the pressures faced by today’s media organizations and our commitment to providing real, lasting benefits, with transparency and accountability.

As we look ahead, our focus is on integrating meaningful, relevant AI into our company and products to accelerate time to value and enhance both customer and user experiences. This journey is already underway, and we are committed to making significant strides in the months to come.

A Game-Changing Modern Media Hub

One of the year’s key milestones was the evolution of Dalet Flex, our flagship media hub. Dalet Flex is not just a powerful platform—it’s the future of media workflows.

With the largest ecosystem of integrations in the industry, Dalet Flex connects every facet of media workflows, powering seamless collaboration and productivity at scale. This year, we’ve made monumental improvements to the platform. We’re excited to debut the newest release at the 2025 NAB Show, delivering on the promise of time-to-value solutions.

Dalet Flex strengthens our commitment to helping our customers efficiently create and deliver impactful content. It positions Dalet as the preferred partner for media professionals managing intricate workflows in an ever-evolving and fragmented environment.

Revolutionizing News Operations at Scale

Another major achievement this year has been the first customer deployments of Dalet Pyramid, a cloud-native suite of modules designed to support enterprise news operations. This innovation helps broadcasters transition from linear-TV-focused workflows to digital-first operations, while continuing to support linear channels.

Underpinned by Dalet Flex, Dalet Pyramid applications offer unparalleled speed-to-value for news organizations, driving faster ROI, enabling more personalized content delivery, and adapting to the needs of multi-generational audiences. It’s more than a tool—it’s a transformational leap for newsrooms worldwide, making operations scalable, efficient, and adaptable to the platforms audiences prefer.

No other solution available today offers the comprehensive capabilities that Dalet delivers to enterprise newsrooms. With its extensive ecosystem of hundreds of integrations, Dalet Pyramid fully supports media companies, enabling them to innovate and maintain a competitive edge in a fast-evolving industry.

Collaborating for the Future

Transformation is never a solo endeavor. It requires collaboration across the industry—customers, vendors, and partners coming together to innovate and address shared challenges.
Our vision emphasizes the importance of fostering a thriving, collaborative media ecosystem where every organization has the tools and insights needed to succeed.

As I look ahead to 2025 and beyond, I remain committed to fostering collaboration. From expanding our product ecosystem and supporting our customers to building transparent partnerships, I believe we can collectively shape a stronger, more sustainable media landscape. I invite all current and potential partners to connect and explore what we can achieve together.

Thank You for an Exceptional Year

This first year as CEO of Dalet has been nothing short of inspiring. It’s been a period of growth, challenges, and meaningful progress—all made possible by our incredible teams, our visionary customers, and an industry that is constantly evolving.

At Dalet, we connect people with stories that move the world. We believe in creating solutions that empower communities—whether it’s revolutionizing news production, innovating media workflows, or fostering inclusive leadership. Thank you for being part of this journey. I’m excited for what we’ll achieve together in the years to come.
