#IBC2023
83 Jim Brickmeier, CEO, Velocix What are the biggest
challenges facing the media and entertainment industry? Profi table and sustainable growth remains the biggest challenge facing the media and entertainment industry. While competition for new subscribers remains fi erce, operators are increasingly focused on solutions that can help them retain current customers, better monetise existing content and boost service margins. Key priorities include improving system reliability and resiliency, lowering energy consumption, minimising capital and operational expenses, and doing more with fewer people to get the job done.
How is your company helping its customers to address the challenges faced by the media and entertainment industry? Velocix is a global provider of ultra-high performance content delivery software for video service providers. Our foundational streaming technology delivers live, on-demand and time-shifted video to tens of millions of wireline

We also offer hosted and managed services that provide 24/7 operational support and expert level assistance. Leveraging our deep heritage in the IP video industry, we guide customers towards practical solutions that will enable them to build more successful video businesses.
What are the main areas of focus for your company during IBC2023? We’re showcasing our latest hybrid-cloud streaming platform, which combines elastic, cloud storage and streaming with ultra-cost effi cient on-premises caching and delivery. With our Hybrid-cloud Origin and Hybrid-cloud CDN at the core, the effi ciency of live, VOD and nPVR services can be maximised, while also moving to more fl exible, OPEX-driven business models which align costs with viewership.
At IBC2023, we’re also
highlighting our Edge-cloud CDN for 5G streaming, which locates CDN caches nearer to consumers’ 5G devices. This results in lower streaming latency, faster start-up times and more reliable content delivery. Mobile operators also benefi t from on-demand scaling which can overcome network congestion and capacity constraints. Additionally, we are showcasing our innovative multi-CDN switching technology and advanced video analytics.
What sets your company apart as a technology leader?
