Our take
Remote working has become a pretty standard part of the fabric of modern-day work life. But how do you navigate remote working in professions - such as video editing - where people require computers capable of downloading huge files and softwares in order to do their job? That’s the issue LucidLink takes aim at, with its cloud-based file-sharing service.
Its platform is specifically designed to be able to share very large amounts of data over very long distances, immediately. This is what makes it suitable for cloud-based video editing services - a huge breakthrough for media and television which enables post-production to be possible remotely in a way that it fundamentally wasn’t before.
LucidLink has cornered a very clear gap in a huge market. With 2023 funding expected to help the company reach profitability, it already had swathes of high-profile customers. These include Netflix, MTV, Condé Nast, Spotify, JP Morgan and Vice, so it's set to make serious waves moving forward,
