Company mission
To offer a continuously evolving cloud platform which can meet the needs of the ever-changing media landscape.
17% employee growth in 12 months
Our take
While senior leaders at the BBC, founders Marina Kalkanis and Marcus Box contributed to the first large-scale online video workflow running completely in AWS Public Cloud. Harnessing this experience, they founded M2A Media in 2016 to provide cloud-based solutions for managing and publishing video. The company currently works with a number of well-known British broadcasters and companies including DAZN
Two of the significant challenges that participants in this market will face in the near future are guaranteeing a turnaround time even for the longest live events and overcoming the issue of these events overlapping in the schedule. Cloud processing could be the key to solve both these problems and M2A Media’s goal is to put its public cloud-based solutions at the service of media enterprises that can leverage the recent considerable changes in technology to offer sustainable answers
