Megapro, South Africa’s premier sports marketing agency renowned for its expertise across sport, media and entertainment, is pleased to announce the appointment of Marc Jury as Group Chief Executive Officer (CEO), effective 1 September 2025.
Jury brings over two decades of distinguished leadership in the sports, media, and broadcasting industries. With an accomplished tenure as CEO of MultiChoice South Africa and Showmax, and previously as CEO of SuperSport, Jury has been instrumental in shaping the continent’s sport broadcasting landscape and driving innovative sports business strategies.
“Marc’s industry gravitas, vision, and deep connections within local and international markets position him exceptionally well to spearhead Megapro’s next chapter,” said George Rautenbach, outgoing Megapro CEO. “His proven track record of creating value in today’s evolving sports ecosystem will be invaluable as Megapro continues to expand its footprint.”
In addition to his new executive role, Jury has committed to a significant equity investment in Megapro, which will culminate in him becoming the majority shareholder in due course.
Rautenbach, who has guided Megapro with remarkable dedication over 38 years, will transition to the position of Chairman. He, together with the Dabengwa and Lategan families, will remain actively engaged shareholders, supporting the company’s ongoing success and leadership continuity.
This leadership handover marks a pivotal moment for Megapro as it embarks on a future of innovation and sustained growth under Jury’s stewardship.
