The Globalization Imperative
Keynote Presentation:
Thomas Munro, CEO, Verimatrix
Growth stage companies no longer have the luxury to build for a domestic market before they “take their show on the road”. Technology markets are global; labor markets are global; and increasingly, financial markets are global. Given the need to be instantly global, what are the pitfalls and best practices? How can distribution channels be efficiently opened? What are the complexities of managing a small but global workforce?
No local company may know this better than Verimatrix. Verimatrix is a venture capital backed emerging company that has repeatedly been acknowledged as the global number one in IPTV content protection. Award-winning products, a global roster of tier one operator deployments and a comprehensive technical vision put Verimatrix at the forefront of the pay-TV business. Verimatrix sets the standard for software-based content security and revenue enhancement technologies in pay-TV networks with a global customer base of telecommunications providers. Verimatrix offers a suite of next-generation technologies that protect content and enhance revenue streams, while combating digital piracy wherever it occurs within the distribution chain.
