Besides crafting successful cloud strategies for broadcasters, Amagi and AD Digital will enable them to embrace new streaming models such as FAST

Amagi, a global leader in cloud-based SaaS technology for broadcast and connected TV, today announced that it has entered a new phase of collaboration with its partner in Latin America, AD Digital. The partnership that started with introducing cloud solutions to broadcasters in the region, will now focus on amplifying its adoption and introducing them to new streaming environments such as Free Ad-supported Streaming TV(FAST). Through the partnership, Amagi will widen its customer base and solidify its position as the preeminent media SaaS provider in the region.

AD Digital is a leading solution integrator and service provider for Media and Entertainment companies in Brazil and other Latin American countries. Their portfolio of services, specifically tailored for video content providers, help customers achieve sustained business growth through co-creation and innovation.

Having achieved over 100% YoY revenue growth in the April-June quarter of 2022 and over $1B valuation (leading to a unicorn status) at the start of the year, Amagi intends to expand its presence across multiple geographies. Latin America is a key market for Amagi as it is poised for tremendous growth in the coming months. The rise of digital natives and online video content consumption in Latin America indicates that the region is primed for a cloud revolution. It also signals a shift in viewership from traditional linear to FAST.
