Zixi comes on stream as Gold sponsor of SVG Europe

Zixi, the software-defined video platform that delivers broadcast-quality live video, has returned as a Gold sponsor of SVG Europe.

John Wastcoat, SVP alliances and marketing at Zixi, said: “Sporting events worldwide are experiencing unprecedented changes with content rights and licensing evolving rapidly, enabling new monetisation opportunities and engaging audience experiences. Zixi is at the heart of this shift, driving new production and distribution models for ultra-low latency, fully secure and highly resilient monitored IP video delivery.”

With Zixi managed contribution feeds, the NHL has been able to rapidly scale up remote media productions that save on costs while unlocking new monetisation opportunities. Zixi’s work in enabling live video over 5G, in concert with leading mobile network providers and leveraging AWS Wavelength Zones, is currently enabling the lowest latency live video services for emerging distribution and sports betting services. OTT services like Fubo TV that aggregate live sports through hundreds of linear channels also turn to Zixi to ensure high quality, reliable transmission, and sports focused service providers like HockeyTech are leveraging Zixi to manage complex live video distribution to monetise niche audiences and excite the fanbase.

“Because of its flexibility, reliability and security, Zixi is trusted to stream some of the biggest live sporting events around the world, including the Super Bowl, the Olympics and World Cup soccer,” added Wastcoat.

On the decision to return as a Gold sponsor of SVG Europe, Wastcoat said: “SVG Europe brings broadcasters and vendors together to as the market evolves, and our membership allows us to showcase our solutions, connect with and understand the requirements of our customers, and collaborate with our partners as we innovate and deliver.”
