Company mission

To offer clients a market leading, cloud-based enterprise live streaming and digital signage solution.

Our take

Screach’s cloud-based streaming and ad platform allows venues such as pubs and hotels to show various sports events and adverts across multiple screens all from one app. The service is in over 100 countries, and has secured some major deals with the likes of La Liga (Spain), and Ligue 1 (France).

The advantage to venue owners is that they can avoid paying for multiple subscription TV services, which they would otherwise have to do given the competitive broadcasting rights field. On the other hand, rights holders and broadcasters are able to extend their reach way beyond their own borders without reliance on satellite and cable networks.

Screach is certainly filling an underserved gap in the market, and having secured funding from North Star Ventures, as well as a partnership with major streaming platform Amazon Prime Video, the company is eyeing further global expansion.
