Livestream

There’s nothing like a live event, but we often can’t be where we want to be. The Internet has made things a little easier. Today video, audio, or commentary from any event can be shared all across the world as it’s happening. It took a while to get to the point where it’s reliable, but we’re mostly there. Livestream is a New York, NY based company that has played a big part in moving us forward when it comes to streaming live content. They offer “event owners a complete set of hardware and software tools to share their events with a growing community online.” This has led them to #750 on the Inc. 5000 with 613% three-year growth to $18.9 million in revenue.

We’re Live

While Livestream can enable anyone to broadcast content over the Internet, they also happen to do it for some really big names including The New York Times, Facebook, ESPN, SpaceX and Warner Bros. All together Livestream ends up broadcasting thousands of events every month and reaching more than 30 million people. By offering a combination of hardware and software, they’re able to ensure a kind of experience that may not be possible with other solutions. When you’re working with such big names, there’s no margin for error. If helping people experience more live content over the Internet sounds like fun to you, check out Livestream’s Careers page.
