Adam Roberts is an accomplished technology and program leader with over 15 years in digital media. In his latest role as Senior Director of Enterprise Program Management at Disney, he led the initiatives to deliver ESPN+ and Disney+ to market. Within 24 hours of its release, Disney+ had more than 10 million subscribers. It went on to be the second largest streaming service in the world in a matter of months. During his time at Disney, over 150 additional countries and territories saw the introduction of Disney+, all spearheaded by Adam and his program management team. As many accomplishments that were made in his six years at Disney, there were scores more lessons learned while scaling Disney+ from its initial launch to over 200 million subscribers in 2023. His media journey began with his tenure at Viacom, where, as its first Program Management Office leader, he oversaw an organization-wide Agile transformation. At a time of great upheaval in the traditional media industry, Adam led the centralization of media technology services across MTV, Nickelodeon and Comedy Central. Between the consolidation of key technologies that drove Viacom’s digital media strategy and the transition to an Agile mindset, Viacom gained critical traction in the journey from a traditional media powerhouse to its successful streaming presence today. Prior to his career in Media, Adam was a technology maverick in the Internet startup world—beginning as a software developer, then as Director of Technology for the publisher of a groundbreaking massively-multiplayer online flight combat simulator. From there, he ventured to New Zealand, Australia, and Thailand where he built award-winning web applications and helped to launch one of the first 3G Mobile companies in Southeast Asia. With his proven ability to help organizations large and small effectively deliver, Adam currently provides his expertise to companies in their digital media and Agile journeys. His clients range from Tribune Media to Johnson & Johnson. When he’s n
