The employer of a CEO reportedly seen in a viral "kiss cam" moment at a recent Coldplay concert says it is launching an investigation into the incident. Astronomer, a New York City-based data company, said in a statement Friday that a "formal investigation" has been launched by its board of directors.

What started out as a classic “kiss cam” moment spiraled Wednesday as two Astronomer executives were caught embracing at a Coldplay concert.

Astronomer CEO Andy Byron is under investigation and on leave after a kiss cam video with HR chief Kristin Cabot at a Coldplay concert went viral.
