Alex Berkett, the soon-to-be former Townsquare Media Executive VP, joins Viacom as Senior VP for Corporate Development. Berkett will lead the company's global corporate development and mergers and acquisitions, much like he did at Townsquare, and report to Viacom CFO Wade Davis. Berkett will be asked to identify and develop growth opportunities for Viacom and its brands, including partnerships, acquisitions, investments and joint ventures. He will also work closely with senior executives across the company to advise on and lead deal negotiations.
