Henry Windridge

Senior Director: Marketing, Digital & Creative EMEA Pay TV & Global Brands Discovery

The chance to run all things brand for the world’s biggest real-life entertainment company saw Henry move to Dubai in late 2017 to join Discovery’s Middle East and Africa team. With 64 markets and 30+ channels, including Food Network, TLC, Discovery Channel, Animal Planet and Fatafeat (the Middle East’s biggest Arabic food channel), he’s become very familiar with the phrase Inshallah. Before that, he was London-based as Head of Marketing at Global, one of the UK’s largest media and entertainment groups with over 24 million weekly listeners across its radio portfolio that includes Heart, Capital FM, LBC and Classic FM. Before marketing was a twinkle in his eye, he completed a PhD in American foreign policy at UCL in London.
