Deepali Narsiker

Deepali Narsiker is a streaming and OTT leader recognised for turning content, distribution, and AI into commercial growth with a particular edge in the discovery and metadata strategy that drives engagement, retention, and revenue.
She works at the intersection where most platforms struggle to connect, content partnerships, distribution, and AI-powered discovery. Her belief that discovery is the real driver of retention, and metadata its commercial infrastructure, has shaped how she helps platforms convert audiences into lasting revenue by improving engagement, reducing churn, and increasing ARPU. As the third hire at HOOQ, the SingTel, Warner Bros., and Sony Pictures joint venture, Deepali helped build one of Southeast Asia's first premium streaming platforms from the ground up, scaling it in diverse markets. She has since led strategic partnerships and growth initiatives with global streaming platforms, telecom operators, and media companies across EMEA and APAC. Deepali serves as Board Director at Women in Streaming Media, holds a Master's degree in Computer Science, and is a Google Women Techmakers Ambassador.
