NATAS’ Technology & Engineering Achievement Committee has recognized Haivision for its excellence in innovation of technologies for the “Management of IP Multicast Video Distribution to Desktops and TVs in News and Media Production Facilities” for its flagship multisite live video distribution and IPTV solution, Haivision Media Platform.
Chosen each year by a committee of highly qualified engineers, the Technology & Engineering Emmy® Awards are awarded for developments and/or standardization involved in engineering technologies that either represent so extensive an improvement on existing methods or are so innovative in nature that they materially have affected television.
A pioneer in secure video distribution over multicast and IPTV since its founding, Haivision has developed an ecosystem of technologies that enables broadcasters to leverage IP network video. Recognized in 2018 for its excellence and engineering creativity with the company’s development of the SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) video streaming protocol, this is the second Emmy® Award the company has earned.
“We’re honored and proud to be recognized by NATAS once again for our contribution to the industry,” said Mirko Wicha, President and CEO Haivision. “This award underscores the ingenuity and dedication of Haivision’s world-class engineering and development teams whose commitment to continuous technical innovation delivers on our customers’ vision and keeps the whole industry moving forward.”

Relied upon by many of the world’s leading broadcasters, Haivision Media Platform enables the management and delivery of high-quality, low latency, live IP video and broadcast TV channels across multiple locations and to remote individuals, providing users with easy access to the same secure, broadcast-quality experience wherever they are located.
