"As we were expanding our business in the EMEA territories, it became clear that the Unicorn Media set of services was essential for us to serve the needs of our clients. As the proliferation of video across multiple devices continues to grow at a rapid pace, Unicorn's patented technology plays a crucial role in solving customer challenges. In addition to the business relationship, we have made a substantial investment in Unicorn Media Inc., as Unicorn clearly has, and will have, the most advanced and customer-oriented solution in the market," Johan Frisch, CEO, Nexeven.
