HBO Veteran Joins Spotify as General Counsel
Spotify, the music streaming company has named WarnerMedia veteran Eve Konstan as their new General Counsel. “She replaces Horacio Gutierrez, who in November was promoted to head of global affairs and chief legal officer, reports Natalie Jarvey in The Hollywood Reporter’s Labor.
“Konstan most recently served as executive vp and general counsel at WarnerMedia Entertainment. Her work at the AT&T-owned company capped a 20-year career at HBO, where she held a variety of roles including general counsel. She started at the cable network not long after the premiere of The Sopranos and was promoted to oversee legal at the WarnerMedia Entertainment portfolio just before the finale of Game of Thrones.”
“At Spotify, Konstan will provide support on legal issues including content licensing, business development, M&A, intellectual property, litigation and risk management. She will be based in New York and report to Gutierrez.”
