Indian-origin media executive Anjali Sud has been appointed as the next Chief Executive Officer of American audio entertainment company SiriusXM, marking another significant leadership appointment for an Indian-origin professional in the United States.
SiriusXM announced on Monday that Sud will assume the position on January 1, 2027, replacing Jennifer Witz, who is stepping down after nearly 25 years with the company, including six years as its CEO.
Witz will continue in an advisory capacity until December 2027.
Sud currently heads Tubi, the Fox-owned streaming platform, where she has expanded its audience to more than 110 million monthly active users and helped the company cross $1 billion in annual revenue.
Before joining Tubi in 2023, she served as CEO of Vimeo from 2017 to 2023, overseeing its transition into an independently traded public company in 2021.
Born in Detroit to Indian immigrant parents, Sud studied economics at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School and later earned an MBA from Harvard Business School.
She will continue serving on SiriusXM’s board after taking charge. The company operates satellite radio, Pandora and a major podcast network, reaching approximately 255 million monthly listeners.
