The entertainment firm said she would be “leading the company’s ambitious next phase of global expansion and its journey to become a world leader in music IP investment and development”.
Koravos will join Pophouse as CEO in January 2026. She joins from her role as president of Oak View Group International, and was previously president of The Really Useful Group and a member of the board of ABBA Voyage.
She will continue at OVG full time up to December, at which time she will assume the role she held from 2018-2023, as non-executive chair of OVG International.
Under Koravos’ leadership, Pophouse will be focused on significantly expanding its portfolio and productions across the world.
“Per Sundin, Pophouse’s current CEO, has played a crucial role in shaping the company’s strategic direction and building a strong foundation for long-term success,” said a statement. “He will remain in his current role until Jessica joins and supports a smooth and orderly process, before assuming a new role within Pophouse.”
In her role as president of Oak View Group, Koravos established a strong international management team with operational hubs in London, Madrid,and Abu Dhabi. She was responsible for overseeing the development and launch of Co-op Live, now set to host the BRIT Awards’ move to Manchester in 2026.

Jessica brings a proven track record of driving sustained growth across entertainment and live production ventures on a global scale, and her leadership in securing international licensing partnerships and delivering iconic IPs to audiences throughout Europe, Asia and the US aligns perfectly with our ambitious expansion goals – for example, Mamma Mia! The Party and the upcoming Kiss avatar show. I am truly thrilled to welcome Jessica to Pophouse.”
Blecher added: “I would like to thank Per for all he has contributed to put Pophouse firmly on the map. We are delighted that Per will continue to be a vital part of the team and we all at Pophouse look forward to continuing our collaboration.”
