Peel Holdings, a major UK property developer, is behind the building of MediaCity UK. It created an in-house division, Peel Media, to build and run the site, where they intend to create the largest purpose-built media community in Europe. To achieve this MediaCity UK needs a shared and innovative media infrastructure that will aggregate demand across multiple clients to deliver the benefits of scale. Mediasmiths were responsible for advising Peel Media from an early stage on the services, technology and business model necessary to successfully deliver this ground-breaking project.

Media Asset Management is at the core of effective tapeless working. Choosing the right MAM isn't easy. In 2008 Mediasmiths were engaged by a major broadcaster to assist with the selection of a Media Asset Management (MAM) technology vendor that would form the heart of the enterprise file based system.

Our client, one of the most respected names in UK broadcasting, and renowned for its sports news coverage, needed to make a step-change improvement in the way it produced and packaged sports news material to be distributed across its wide range of output channels. Mediasmiths were engaged to ensure that this change was delivered using innovative technologies, whilst still coming in on-time and to budget.
