In July, it was announced that SES Platform Services and RR Media had merged. The new company name, MX1, reflects an ambition to be ‘number one in media experience’.
IBC2016 represents its first major public appearance, where it is presenting its full suite of digital video and media services.
MX1 provides content management, distribution and value-added services for premium content. It claimed it would be utilising the combined global networks of the merged companies, as well as their cloud technologies, to “maximise audience reach over multiple screens and increase monetisation opportunities for customers”.
These services include a range of video and media solutions delivered over satellite, fibre and the internet.
