After a turbulent narrative of the boardroom and executive suite conflicts, Vinco Ventures, Inc. (NASDAQ:BBIG) has moved to formally identify Ross Miller as CEO.

According to a corporate announcement, former co-CEO Ross Miller will be promoted to the position of CEO on his own, while Lisa King returns to her position on the Board of Directors alongside Rod Vanderbilt, who will also stay on the Board. Former Melco Resorts executive Gabe Hunterton will work as President of the company.

A “thwarted takeover attempt” in July had King and Vanderbilt as its corporate objectives. In July, both people had their operational employment with the company terminated. The business then declared that John Colucci would be named as the CEO-in-waiting.
