Why Did We Join?
Several reasons compelled us to become a Streaming Video Technology Alliance member. I am familiar with the value that the organization brings to the media and entertainment industry through previous endeavors with SVTA members, such as Geeter Kyrazis, our Chief Strategy Officer. The SVTA continues to make progress when it comes to communicating the importance of developing and adopting streaming video standards, and bringing the industry together to solve technical challenges through education and action.
