Mirada plc

("Mirada", the "Company" or the "Group")

Mirada targets USA, Canada & the Caribbean through Shift 2 Stream
collaboration

 

Mirada (AIM: MIRA), a leading provider of integrated software solutions for
digital TV services, announces its strategic collaboration with US-based
Shift 2 Stream, Inc.

 

Based in Atlanta, Georgia, USA, Shift 2 Stream empowers rural, regional, small
and mid-size internet service providers ("ISPs") and cable operators to
deliver cost-effective application-based TV services to their residential and
business subscribers.  Shift 2 Stream currently services the United States,
Canada and the Caribbean, where it has built a large network of partners and a
strong market position with its broad experience deploying game changing video
solutions.

 

As a result of this collaboration, Shift 2 Stream will become an official
reseller of Mirada's products and services through the integration of Mirada's
Iris technology into its new Opt2Me solution. Opt2Me is the first fully
end-to-end hybrid cloud TV-as-a-service platform optimised for rural and
regional ISPs and cable operators wanting to add pay TV and video streaming
services.

 

Mirada's Iris technology powers the Opt2Me multiscreen solution, providing
end-users a next-generation viewing experience on all user devices such as
smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, set-top-boxes and more. Operators will also
be able to segment their subscriber base to offer personalised content and
advertising. This enriched experience will offer viewers access to their
favourite content with download & play, session transfer, pause TV,
start-over and many other advanced features.

 

Through this new alliance, Mirada expands its reach into North America and
further in the Caribbean, strengthening its position as a strategic partner
empowering digital TV services to keep up with viewers' evolving demands,
habits and preferences. This distribution agreement follows the deployment of
the new commercial strategy in the APAC market, which has substantially
increased Mirada's presence in the region.

 

Mirada's CEO, José Luis Vázquez, commented: "For years Mirada has
collaborated with the main players in the sector to establish ourselves as a
key strategic partner for our customers to excel in the digital TV industry.
Our new collaboration with Shift 2 Stream will allow us to expand our reach
into North America and further in the Caribbean, supporting existing and
potential clients in bringing the most advanced video experience possible to
users."

 

Shift 2 Stream's CEO, Steve Calzone, commented: "In developing our Opt2Me
solution we recognised that working with a global leader in interface design
and usability of next generation TV Services is critical to the success of our
customers. Mirada's depth and breadth of experience in analytics-driven
personal user interface was the answer. Our collaboration with Mirada on
integrating Iris technology with Opt2Me delivers a game-changing TV solution
for rural and regional communications providers."

About Shift 2 Stream

regional, small and mid-size ISPs and cable operators deliver cost-effective
application-based TV services to their residential and business subscribers.

 

The Company was founded on the vision of creating simple tools for an operator
to shift from traditional Pay TV to an IP and App-based TV experience.  After
working with industry leading product companies in the media space S2S created

multi-tenant cloud-hosted DRM and User Experience Platforms. In addition, its
green energy technologies provide an edge in the marketplace for operators
wishing to quickly and efficiently offer Pay TV and NextGenTV broadcasts,
programming and streaming applications over the Internet.  Shift 2 Stream
