As general manager of the WarnerMedia Innovation Lab, Redniss oversees future-forward efforts to combine emerging technologies with premium WarnerMedia content, to create new and innovative consumer experiences and businesses.

He leads external data partnerships, which ultimately power the company’s data and analytics-driven products and experiences.
