Rubasinski leaves Sky to enter Polystream

Marek Rubasinski has left media company Sky, where he was director of its startup investments and partnerships team, to join UK-based gaming platform developer Polystream as chief commercial officer.

Sky hired Rubasinski in 2008 to be its director of business development, a role that included responsibility for over-the-top video agreements with partners including gaming systems Xbox and Playstation.

Rubasinski began managing Sky’s startup investments and partnerships in 2015, partly through corporate venturing unit Sky Ventures, before announcing in October 2017 he would step down to pursue new opportunities.

Polystream is developing a cloud-based platform that will enable users to play any game directly on a website or platform without needing to create an account or download or install anything.

As part of his new role, Rubasinski will help Polystream put together a series A round later this year while expanding its headcount as it looks to secure business and form long-term partnerships.

Rubasinski said: “I am super excited to have joined Polystream – having spent a great deal of my career working to commercialise exciting new technology I was blown away by what the team are doing.

“Polystream is ground-breaking deep tech and I relished the opportunity to be there in the early stages as we reshape the way multiple industries and sectors do business.”
