History

Digital Media Projects was founded in 2005 primarily to serve small to medium corporate network infrastructure and media delivery platforms, DMP struggled to find cost-effective solutions that met the exacting demands of its clients. Available products were expensive, too focussed and inflexible. The decision was made to develop a range of products and services that were dynamic and cost-effective, with capability to compete with the best the IPTV and Digital Signage industry had to offer. Within 9 months the first product was complete, a platform designed entirely in house. In November 2006, the network infrastructure arm was divested and Digital Media Projects began to focus entirely on digital media delivery. That focus has paid dividends, with many high-profile clients coming on board and strong new products and services being added to DMP’s portfolio.
