Summary
🤩
RockstarRomain Bouqueau is a founder and CEO with 20 years’ experience specializing in open source-driven video streaming, broadcast and OTT technologies from Paris. He founded Motion Spell to commercialize and support GPAC, the widely adopted open-source multimedia framework and MP4 reference tooling used by industry leaders like Netflix and YouTube. A vocal open-standards advocate, he leads product efforts—such as SubStance, Signals and the NAB‑award winning Abstract compliance engine—that bridge research-grade codecs and pragmatic broadcast deployments. Romain blends deep protocol and container expertise (fMP4, DASH, MPEG2-TS, HEVC, CENC) with a business-friendly licensing model that helps enterprises ship compliant streaming solutions quickly. Less visible but impactful, he has long enabled industry adoption through consulting, training and a global expert community around GPAC.
