About Digital Media Projects

This industry focus means our services and solutions are tailored for the challenges our clients face in their specific markets. Our in-depth understanding of these areas ensures we are able to assist our clients in responding to rapidly to changing market needs. We are committed to helping our clients build and maintain leadership positions in their respective fields, by using our acute technological and commercial insight.

DMP was founded in 2005 primarily to serve small to medium corporate network infrastructure and media delivery platforms, but it 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 nine months the first product was complete, a platform designed entirely in house. In November 2006, the network infrastructure arm was divested and DMP began to focus entirely on broadcast media solutions. That focus has paid dividends, with many high-profile clients gained and strong new products and services being added to DMP’s portfolio on a regular basis.
