Streaming Media Triple Threat and What it Means to Matter

Submitted by MattF on October 8, 2012 - 09:50

Streaming Media Readers ChoiceEach year, Streaming Media magazine identifies the one hundred companies that matter most in online video. Last week, Elemental was named to the 2012 Streaming Media 100 for the second consecutive year. Streaming Media’s panel of judges separated the stalwarts from the upstarts, identifying the companies "that continue to innovate and grow not just their customer base but the industry as a whole." To be certain, it’s an honor to be included, but what does that mean – to matter?

To the readers, it is a reminder: vote. The power to rank and recommend these companies lies in the Streaming Media Reader’s Choice Awards. Vote before October 15, and remember to confirm your vote when Streaming Media sends an email verification. Elemental is nominated for four awards including:

  • Encoding Software (Enterprise Class)
  • Hardware Encoder (On Demand)
  • Hardware Encoder (Live)
  • Multi-Screen/OTT Solution for Content Publishers

To the editors, it is a map. These broadcasters, content publishers, and related service providers build the world of sports, news and entertainment media. All roam the streaming video landscape. 

To the nominee, it is a cheer. Elemental wins with each customer we connect to next. With that, we hope to see you next at Streaming Media West, October 30-31, in Los Angeles, where we will be speaking about Best Practices for Migrating to a Cloud-Based Encoding Platform (like Elemental Cloud). If you can’t make it to the show, perhaps we can meet at another industry event coming up soon.

Finally, to this blog, your attention makes it matter. Thank you.

IBC 2012Elemental is visiting four continents in the next thirty days, so the world has a great chance to see us this fall. Connect with Elemental at an upcoming industry event if you missed IBC last month or haven’t visited with us lately. In the next few months, the Elemental team brings hands-on demonstrations of its solutions to cities all over the world, including our newest products, Elemental Stream and Elemental Cloud. Elemental executives are also speaking on panels to the latest in multiscreen video streaming in Hong Kong, Los Angeles, New York and London. Have you made an appointment to see us?

Shows are worth the trip. Since most video workflows have at least one unique feature, attendees can save time by asking Elemental representatives questions about streaming media to smart phones, tablets and PCs and get fast answers. At a trade show, our team can talk through your specific challenges and demonstrate the advantages of video processing solutions from Elemental. We have deep experience helping companies like HBO, Comcast and the BBC deploy video infrastructure to deliver premium content and live events to new media platforms quickly and reliably. Visit us at one the shows listed below to see how we can support your application.
