IPV Extends Reach for Browse Solution in Germany with Logic Media

Cambridge, UK, April 15, 2009

IPV, a global leader and largest independent supplier of low bit-rate, frame-accurate video technology to the broadcast and professional video sectors, today announced that it has appointed Logic Media to promote, distribute and provide the after sales service and support for IPV’s browse solutions throughout Germany.

As part of the distribution agreements, Logic Media will represent IPV in this market and distribute products including the company’s Curator system, a comprehensive, browse-based tapeless workflow media system which allows communities of media professionals add value to their content; and IPV’s SpectreView, the de facto standard for browse resolution systems. SpectreView is already implemented by a large number of vendors of playout automation, newsrooms, asset management and access services around the world.

"Since its inception IPV have proved itself to be the leader in development of low-resolution browse technology and its ability to partner with some of the world’s leading suppliers is testament to that success," said Bernd Poth, Managing Director, at Logic Media. "There is a good opportunity in Germany to extend the IPV brand and we are very excited about the prospects ahead, particularly those in the news and sports environments."

"In order to continue to grow our global business, our strategy has been to provide a unified sales approach for both our Curator and SpectreView solutions. The appointment of Logic Media in Germany is important to the implementation of this strategy as it provides us with a direct reach into the local German market," said Nigel Booth, EVP Sales and Marketing at IPV. "Logic Media will not only provide IPV with the local market knowledge to support growth in this territory but the company will also ensure that the customer’s service and support needs are addressed locally."
