Music-video network Vevo said it is adding to its connected-TV programming and capabilities by working with Amagi, which features cloud-based technology.
“As Vevo expands and monetizes on CTV worldwide, we are extending our capabilities correspondingly in order to work with more distributor and advertising partners, especially those in the rapidly growing FAST [free ad-supported streaming TV] space,” Natalie Gabathuler-Scully, senior VP, global revenue and distribution operations, Vevo, said. “Amagi’s cloud-based infrastructure enhances our ubiquity and bolsters our flexibility as we navigate growth, and helps us meet global CTV content delivery and ad tech requirements to ensure we maximize our revenue potential.”
Vevo has been building up its free ad-supported streaming TV business, creating more than 80 channels that are distributed by more than 30 outlets.

We look forward to continuing to amplify Vevo’s reach across platforms and geographies as the company scales to new heights of global growth.” ■
