We recorded this podcast with Tim Shoulders, President Grass Valley, earlier this month (April 10th).  As the CEO of one of the largest technology suppliers in the sector, Shoulders offers a candid perspective about the business implications of the COVID-19 disruption both for Grass Valley and the broader media technology supplier community.

This wide-ranging discussion about the state of the media technology industry touches on a number of hot-button issues, including:

  • The timing and nature of a return of live sports
  • Remote production (REMI) workflows and the business ramifications to suppliers
  • Cloud-based services in live production environments
  • The commercial viability of lower tier events
  • Latest status of Black Dragon’s announced acquisition of Grass Valley
