Forbidden Technologies signs two-year deal with Deltatre

Forbidden Technologies announced on Thursday that it signed an extendable two year contract with Deltatre for one of its clients.

The AIM-traded company said the contract was worth in excess of £0.1m spread over a two year period.

It said Deltatre - a supplier of digital and broadcast services in the sports market - would be using Forbidden's ‘Forscene’ cloud video platform.

Forscene was used by Deltatre to extend their ‘over-the-top’ offering of editing services for live and on demand content, Forbidden’s board said, adding use of the Forscene platform would start in July.

The Forscene video platform delivered a “fully virtualised” workflow that sped up time-to-market for highlights packages, allowed remote viewing and editing, and could be used to publish directly to social media channels and websites, Forbidden Tech’s board explained.

“Forscene's platform of capabilities provide us with a range of applications to help us grow our market and deliver a superior digital sports solution,” said Deltatre commercial director Stefano Rigat.

“We continue to use the Forscene video platform offering, over a range of clients and sports categories, for live and on demand content.”

Forbidden Technologies chairman David Main said Deltatre had been a key customer of theirs in the sports market for a number of years.

“This minimum two year deal clearly indicates the strength of our 'live solutions' and values our commitment to maintaining our market leading capabilities in this sector,” Main explained.
