Real confirms hiring of Hulett

RealNetworks tonight confirmed that it has hired Matt Hulett, the former CEO of online advertising startup Mpire, as its new chief revenue officer for RealGames North America. It's a homecoming for Hulett, a former Expedia and AtomShockwave executive who worked as a RealNetworks group manager earlier in his career.

“Matt has a strong track record of developing and leading successful ecommerce companies,” said John Barbour, president of RealGames, in a statement released by the company. “We are thrilled to add an executive of his quality and experience to our team and are sure he will have a very positive impact on our North American businesses.”

RealNetworks described Hulett's job as a new position that will be instrumental in the company's syndication and direct-to-consumer games segments. Technology news site Xconomy, citing anonymous sources, last week broke the news that Hulett was joining RealGames.
