Heartland Video Systems (HVS) has appointed Dan Whealy as Director of Business Development and Technology, effective Sept. 3, 2024.

A distinguished, passionate industry leader with over two decades of experience in broadcast technology leadership, Whealy understands the ins and outs of television and radio stations. He brings unparalleled expertise across the board to HVS, including ATSC 3.0, ATSC 1.0, and next-generation broadcast technologies.

Whealy joins HVS from Allen Media Broadcasting, where he served as Chief Technology Officer, overseeing technological strategy and innovation at NBC, ABC, CBS, and Fox affiliates across the country. Under his leadership, Allen Media achieved significant operational and infrastructure-based improvements, realizing annual multimillion-dollar savings to the company through strategic capital initiatives. His focus has always been customer-centric, with a distinct passion for reliably serving the communities his stations have supported via robust, efficient technological infrastructures.

In his role at HVS, Whealy will focus on fostering strong relationships with broadcast group leaders and engineering support teams while being a key stakeholder for the company’s long-term business growth strategy and direction. He will also be an important component of HVS’s technology leadership team. His extensive knowledge of the broadcast landscape and strong leadership background position him to play a pivotal role in shaping HVS’s growth in both traditional broadcast and other emerging business sectors.

Dennis Klas, President of HVS, commented: "We are excited to welcome Dan at a transformative time for the broadcast industry. His depth of experience, particularly in ATSC 3.0, aligns perfectly with our mission to deliver innovative solutions for broadcasters. Dan's forward-thinking approach will help HVS continue to be a trusted partner as we navigate the evolving broadcast landscape."

Dan Whealy, Director of Business and Technology, commented: "I am excited to continue my service in the industry at a well-respected company like HVS. I look forward to working with many of the colleagues I already know and to building great relationships with those I have not worked with yet. The industry is, in fact, going through a transformative period in its history, and I can't wait to get to work and help move the needle forward for HVS in its mission to support our important partners during this time."
