D.A.V.I.D. Joins the Silex Media group

MUNICH, Germany, May 22 /PRNewswire/ --

-- Strategic Move in Response to the Increasing Demand for Efficient Solutions & Services Capable of Optimizing the Broadcast Workflow

Silex Media and D.A.V.I.D., both established players in the broadcast market, are uniting under a single roof to build a stronger market position: Silex Media investor SGI Japan Limited announced Tuesday it has acquired all of the shares in D.A.V.I.D. GmbH. Silex Media CEO Stephan Schindler, together with D.A.V.I.D. CEO Gerhard Möller, will begin to architect the two operations immediately. The two organizations will continue to operate in parallel.

"D.A.V.I.D.'s solutions and IT expertise and its many years of experience in radio are the perfect complement to our own offering of products and services." says Schindler. "We will be able to deliver a much broader product range through our new partner, while Silex Media focuses on its competency as a systems integrator." Möller is equally satisfied with the move: "Our customers and systems integrators will benefit from the wider product range and integrated solutions."

The two companies together can now offer a wide range of complementary products, from Silex Media's Hydrogen to D.A.V.I.D.'s products used by Radio and TV stations for the acquisition, management, desktop production and delivery/ broadcast of digital media.

Silex Media and D.A.V.I.D. have worked together on a number of projects throughout Europe already, including an integrated radio and television production environment for Saarländischer Rundfunk (SR) in Germany.
