The journey to global expansion

In the last few years, AI-Media has made five strategic acquisitions that have significantly expanded our talent, technology and product suite. In May 2021, we announced our most recent transformational acquisition of market-leading US video and captioning technology company EEG Enterprises. The acquisition of EEG not only allowed AI-Media to grow further into North America, but also expand our product suite to include EEG’s automatic captioning solution, LEXI. We also added EEG’s range of world-leading encoders, caption display hardware and its iCap Cloud Network – the world’s largest, most secure captioning delivery network – to our technology suite.

Prior to that, in December 2020, AI-Media had acquired three US-based captioning, transcription and translation providers, Caption IT, Caption Access and Home Team Captions. And in May 2020 AI-Media made its first acquisition with the highly regarded US captioning services company Alternative Communications Services (ACS) – an acquisition that saw AI-Media accelerate growth in the important North American market.
