Thomson and Panasonic have announced original equipment manufacturing (OEM) and mutual distribution agreements.
The two broadcast equipment giants revealed a distribution agreement in which Panasonic will integrate the award-winning Grass Valley line of Profile family servers and M-Series iVDR products, into their systems solutions worldwide. The two companies also announced an OEM agreement in which Thomson will continue their sales and support of the Panasonic DVCPRO products and will purchase and distribute additional Thomson-brand products from Panasonic, including its popular line of LCD professional monitors.
“With its Emmy® Award-winning Profile platform and leading market share position, Thomson’s expertise in video servers is clear,” said Yoshihiko Yamada, vice president for Systems Business Group at Panasonic AVC Networks Company. “As a technology leader, Panasonic is extremely pleased to be able to leverage our world-class systems solutions to expand access to this popular product – as well as the revolutionary new M-Series iVDR products.”
Marc Valentin, president of Thomson Broadcast & Media Solutions, said: “We are delighted to expand what has been a very successful distribution effort with Panasonic for their best-in-class professional digital camcorders and VTRs to include their latest line of LCD professional monitors.
“The agreement with Panasonic opens significant worldwide growth opportunities for Thomson and its Content and Networks division in the Pacific Region. We look forward to working together to provide long-term, rewarding benefits for our mutual customers.”
