Gersh was courted to support the company’s scalable growth and operational excellence
New York, NY – November 19, 2025 – Pypestream, a leading provider of enterprise-grade AI agents that reimagine how organizations connect with their customers, today announced the appointment of Lisa Gersh to its Board of Directors. Gersh brings decades of operating experience as a CEO, board member and founder.
“For years I have watched Lisa deftly demonstrate how to scale visionary companies with operational precision,” said Richard Smullen, Founder and CEO of Pypestream. “I admire her ability to bring structure and discipline to innovative, fast-moving organizations and am grateful she is joining us for Pypestream’s next phase of growth.”
A respected leader across media, consumer and technology sectors, Gersh has served as CEO of several iconic brands including Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Goop and Alexander Wang. She co-founded Oxygen Media with Geraldine Laybourne, later serving as its President and COO until the company’s sale to NBC, where she went on to hold senior strategic roles, including leading NBC Universal’s acquisition of The Weather Channel Companies.
In addition to her executive leadership roles, Gersh has deep boardroom experience at major public companies. She currently serves on the boards of Hasbro, Inc. and STARZ. She also sits on the board of Jones Road, a private cosmetics company founded by Bobbi Brown, and previously served on the board of MoneyLion through its sale in 2025.
“Pypestream is unique in how it is marrying technical excellence with disciplined execution to lead in the era of Applied AI,” said Lisa Gersh. “I’m excited to help the company continue scaling responsibly, embedding operational rigor across functions and building partnerships that amplify its reach and impact.”
Gersh joins current board members: Mike Nannizzi of W. R. Berkley Corporation, Mike SInger of Innocreative Capital, Amitabh Sharma of Spencer Stuart and Bart Swanson of Horizons Ventures. W. R. Berkley Corporation is the lead investor in Pypestream, having led two rounds of funding on the company’s behalf. Berkley's strategic investments and adoption of Pypestream’s solutions across its own businesses have helped drive the company’s growth.
