Beam is a service driven technology business which has transformed the way brands adapt, manage and distribute video content for the global digital age. We understand the value of content in engaging consumers wherever they are.

Our systems simplify the process of managing, distributing and storing commercial content for an increasingly connected global marketplace.

We were established as a project management tool and have evolved to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse array of media outlets. Today we store, adapt and send thousands of assets to hundreds of television broadcasters worldwide; we manage a secure archive in excess of 2,000,000 assets and are digitally connected to every major online site. We have developed an intuitive and simple retail IPTV facility, which allows any user to create their own “in-store” TV channels controlled directly from their desktop.

We work with many of the world’s largest brands and agencies to manage every aspect of their commercial content and we continually innovate to serve the changing needs of the creative industry.

We help make ideas come to life; then we connect those ideas to any screen, anywhere, at any time through our global network.

Play. Change. Send. Store.
