Our take
Getty Images is the most trusted and esteemed source of visual content in the world, with hundreds of millions assets available through its brands. The company serves creative, business and media customers, regardless of size, in almost 200 countries.
Operating the most comprehensive digital archive in the world, the company works with contributors and content partners to cover more than 160,000 news, sport and entertainment events each year.

Already an extremely established presence, Getty Images is set to remain a market leader as it furthers the reach of its subscription-based model across the globe. It continues to bolster its archives, for example with the acquisition of Motorsport Images, and is also set to play a key role in the development of the AI imagery sector.
