MUMBAI: Vice Media’s International vice president and global revenue director Dominique Delport has stepped down from his role after three years.

A Deadline report stated that Delport has not left the company completely and will continue to advise Vice part-time through his newly launched consultancy firm Arduina Partners. Apart from Vice, Arduina handles four other clients. Delport also supports three start-ups, including artificial intelligence and intellectual property.

Delport joined Vice in May 2018 after working for 17 years with entertainment group Vivendi and advertising firm Havas. In his role, he has helped oversee Vice’s global footprint, including its London-based production unit, Vice Studios, which is headed by former Refinery29 executive Kate Ward.

In addition to resigning from his position, Delport is no longer the director of Pulse Films, which made the Sky / AMC drama Gangs of London and Netflix’s The Disappearance of Madeleine McCann. He has also quit as director of the Vice Edition Worldwide agency.

“I’ve had a fantastic run at Vice for almost three years and it’s a bittersweet feeling to leave such a talented team, but I will remain a shareholder and business partner. 2021 will be a year of consolidation in Europe and globally for the media / entertainment and advertising industries. And I want to participate fully in this accelerated post-Covid2019 digitisation,” Deadline quoted Delport as saying.
