In June this year, Blackbird announced a multi-year deal with A+E Networks in the US to drive major video productivity efficiencies. As well as being widely used in the production sector, Blackbird has a growing global user base across multiple sectors including sports, esports and news - customers include MSG Networks, IMG, Deltatre, NRL, Peloton, Gfinity and TownNews.
Ian McDonough, CEO of Blackbird, said: "We are delighted that so many partners have signed up to the Blackbird BP3 programme so far.
