Mitch Lowe is a visionary global executive, celebrated for fundamentally rewiring the entertainment and retail landscapes through pioneering disruptive models and strategic foresight. As a co-founding executive at Netflix and the former President of Redbox, he leverages a proprietary understanding of consumer behavioural shifts, scaling high-growth enterprises, and institutionalising a culture of relentless innovation within complex corporate ecosystems.
With over three decades of operational leadership at the precipice of technological change, Mitch Lowe has consistently identified and capitalised on industry-defining transitions. Joining Netflix as Vice President of Business Development and Strategic Alliances, he was instrumental in shaping the company’s early trajectory, driving the strategic partnerships that allowed a fledgling DVD-by-mail service to systematically dismantle traditional video rental empires.
Following his tenure at Netflix, Lowe assumed the role of President and Chief Operating Officer at Redbox. Under his operational stewardship, the company experienced exponential growth, expanding to over 35,000 kiosk locations globally and achieving in excess of $1.5 billion in annual revenue. His ability to foresee the convergence of physical retail and digital convenience cemented his reputation as a master of scalable disruption.
Most recently, as the CEO of MoviePass, Lowe once again disrupted the theatrical exhibition sector, introducing a subscription model that radically altered cinema attendance dynamics. Drawing on both his monumental triumphs and high-profile navigational challenges, he provides audiences with an unfiltered, highly strategic masterclass on corporate agility and the realities of leading from the bleeding edge of innovation.
Lowe’s speaking engagements are anchored in his proprietary frameworks for sustained corporate relevance. He deconstructs the anatomy of disruption, teaching executives and leadership teams how to build robust, agile cultures that champion intrapreneurship and are not paralysed by the fear of failure.
“Mitch joined us before we were Netflix, he was part of the founding team at Netflix, and a vital part or our successes.”
“Mitch for the Perfect Media specialist with all the unique skills and Background able to transform the initial test to the great success Redbox has become .I used to say this guy OWNS the DVD industry he got it Instantly and since he made the BOOM.”
“Mitch has always had a brilliant approach to keep a company moving and thinking forward. Many of the ideas I would suggest to him he would not only accept and put into consideration, he would usually bring up opportunities in which that idea can be used in more than the intended platform. His approachable work ethic really re-iterates a positive work environment.”
“Me, a dynamic director of marketing handling the launch of DVD at Philips. Mitch, a tenacious and creative marketeer with an idea. He pitched Netflix coupons as an in box offer providing free movies to new owners. I countered with the prequalified lead position and secured a payment per coupon inserted. A score for both sides. The rest is history. His a bit more historic than mine!”
