-- EditShare Takes On Majority Investment From ParkerGale Capital Investment will fuel product innovation and growth across the media & entertainment sector
Boston, MA - May 20, 2019 - EditShare a technology leader in intelligent scale-out storage, Automated Quality Control (AQC), editing and media management solutions, today announced it has taken on a majority investment from private equity firm ParkerGale Capital (ParkerGale). Focused on profitable founder owned technology companies, ParkerGale's carefully curated portfolio is a mix of software-oriented businesses that are supported by the firm's financial investment and in-house operating team whose mission is to help portfolio businesses rapidly scale and bring to market new innovative products and services. EditShare founders, Andy Liebman and Tara Montford, will continue to lead EditShare innovation and customer success and remain the company's largest individual shareholders. Industry veteran, Conrad Clemson, will join the leadership team as EditShare CEO.
We have created a company that not only delivers products and solutions that appeal to the media production market, as shown by our returning customers, but also to a company such as ParkerGale, which has had the insight to see how valuable EditShare has become. ParkerGale's deep-seated history of helping profitable companies like ours achieve their next stage growth goals will enable our team to expand and develop the EditShare product range into even better solutions for our customers in the future, comments Tara Montford, Co-Founder and Executive Vice President Business Development, EditShare. EditShare has always been extremely customer-focused and without our customers' engagement, we would not be where we are today. Riding the momentum of double-digit growth over the last three years combined with the investment by ParkerGale, we will have the resources at hand to accelerate all our plans and deliver on our innovative roadmap while retaining that personal touchpoint with our customers.
Deployed at thousands of facilities around the world, EditShare solutions are used to power the creation of many of today's blockbuster feature films, captivating TV series, documentaries, sports programs, live events, educational programs, corporate communications and more. Its ultra-scalable distributed media management platform enables businesses of all sizes to drive media production workflows with greater ease. EditShare's secure collaboration environment connects users to content and production tools, allowing businesses to hire the talent they require, anywhere in the world.
We are proud to offer industry-leading solutions that enable our customers to respond to market demands with greater efficiency and ultimately take advantage of new opportunities to grow their businesses, comments Andy Liebman, EditShare Co-Founder and newly appointed Chief Strategy Officer. Our incredibly talented team is dialed into our customers' needs and next steps. They are developing and delivering innovative solutions that facilitate collaboration and efficiency such as the EditShare Flow hybrid media management platform that can cut production time by as much as 50% and EFS Shared Storage Auditing, an important content security capability that helps mitigate content theft. Our innovation spans all aspects of media production from an individual storyteller who is using the Emmy-award winning Lightworks to enterprise broadcasters automating productions with EditShare's metadata-driven workflow solutions. With ParkerGale's infusion of capital, EditShare will be able to execute much faster on the many more incredible product and workflow ideas we have for all of our customers.
Leading the company through this next stage of growth is EditShare's new CEO, Conrad Clemson, who recently led Cisco's Video, Mobility, and Cloud organizations. Andy founded EditShare in 2003 when he needed a more flexible and affordable solution for media sharing. His invention of high-performance Network Attached Storage for editing transformed the industry in a way others weren't imagining at that time, comments Clemson. EditShare's history of leading the industry with groundbreaking innovations and solving customer problems before they even recognize them goes deep, and with this investment, the EditShare team will be even better positioned to continue to deliver transformative solutions to an industry that is in greater demand for it now more than ever.
Devin Mathews, Founding Partner at ParkerGale concludes on the new partnership and expanded resources, We couldn't be more excited to embark on this partnership with the EditShare team. In our research, we were particularly impressed by just how much customers love the EditShare suite of products - a testament to the tremendous foundation this company has built.
