Media technology and system integration company Broadcast Solutions that has finalised its acquisition of Videlio Middle-East, the Dubai-based subsidiary of Videlio group. This new acquisition will merge with existing Broadcast Solutions operations in the Middle-East, led by Munzer Rushdi.
‘Our goal is to expand our activities in the Middle-East and beyond into Africa’, says Broadcast Solutions CEO, Stefan Breder. ‘This acquisition dramatically increases our ability to service regional broadcasters and propose fixed installations and facilities in addition to our OB vans and mobile platforms.’
With a team of a dozen professionals based out of Dubai Media City, Videlio Middle-East was set up five years ago. It services UAE and GCC-based broadcasters, as well as provides Command and Control (C2) systems to corporate and enterprise clients such as ADCO, Total, Dassault Systems, Dubai Petroleum or Emirates NBD.
‘We gain additional resources and skills to better service our existing and future clients,’ explains Broadcast Solutions Managing Partner, Laurent Mairet. ‘Broadcast Solutions expertise in live production was a natural fit to our news, postproduction and archive practice.’
