MediaKind has completed its merger with Harmonic’s video business, creating what the company describes as the world’s largest independent video infrastructure provider.

The combined business will generate more than $250 million in annual revenue, including over $100 million in annual recurring revenue and more than $150 million from appliance sales. The merger brings together MediaKind’s streaming and cloud video technologies with Harmonic’s established video processing and delivery portfolio.

MediaKind said the transaction creates a business spanning SaaS streaming platforms, cloud-native video workflows and traditional video infrastructure, serving broadcasters, pay-TV operators, streaming services and media companies worldwide.

“Bringing these two teams together under one roof is a powerful moment, creating a stronger, more capable partner for the media industry at a time of significant change,” said Allen Broome, Chief Executive Officer of MediaKind. “Outstanding technology, deep expertise, and a shared obsession with customer success — we’re ready to build something exceptional.”

The deal significantly reshapes the video technology landscape, creating one of the largest independent suppliers outside the major cloud providers and telecommunications vendors. The combined company is targeting broadcasters and media organisations looking to modernise video workflows while managing increasingly complex hybrid environments spanning broadcast, streaming and cloud delivery.

The merger follows a period of consolidation across the video technology sector as vendors seek greater scale to address growing demand for cloud-native streaming, software-defined video processing and AI-powered media workflows. MediaKind said customers will now have access to an integrated portfolio covering contribution, processing, distribution and monetisation technologies.

To coincide with the completion of the transaction, MediaKind has launched a new corporate website integrating the portfolios of both companies and outlining its combined product strategy.
