Amagi to distribute FAST channels for Thema

February 9, 2022 12.17 Europe/London By Julian Clover

Thema has signed a new agreement with Amagi to distribute FAST channels Vive Kanal D Drama and Wanna See TV.

The Canal+ Group company is using Amagi’s broadcast-grade channel playout platform Amagi Cloudport and the lightweight content scheduling platform, Amagi Planner for media asset management and distribution. Also, Amagi Content Plus will enable Thema to manage the workflows of multiple streaming TV channels and other Video-On-Demand assets.

“Having worked with Amagi for an earlier project, we were impressed with their expertise and commitment to deliver as promised,” said Sylvie Michel, Deputy CEO Thema. “Amagi’s cloud-built solutions, Amagi Cloudport and Amagi Planner have been instrumental in helping us elevate our media asset management and worldwide distribution to FAST platforms such as Xiaomi, LG, TCL, and Roku. As we extend our reach across the globe, we hope to increasingly tap into Amagi’s extensive distribution network and rich expertise in bringing new platforms on board.”

“Over the years, Thema has built an incredible presence, rapidly increasing its footprint across the globe and supporting content providers admirably,” added Srinivasan Ka, co-founder, Amagi. “We look forward to a fruitful partnership as the world of entertainment evolves to create exciting new opportunities.”

Amagi clients also include ABS-CBN, A+E Networks UK, beIN Sports, CuriosityStream, Discovery Networks, Fox Networks, Fremantle, NBCUniversal, Tastemade, Tegna, USA Today, Vice Media, and Warner Media.
