Quickplay completes cross-border acquisition of Roundbox

On March 4, 2015, Toronto-based Quickplay, the global expert in powering premium video to any device, announced the acquisition of New Jersey-based Roundbox Inc., the leading technology provider for the optimization of video and other data-intensive applications over mobile networks.

The acquisition supports Quickplay’s strategy to enable the monetization of engaging premium viewing experiences on any device or network by using multicast (one-to-many), and unicast (one-to-one) technologies that leverage 4G LTE Broadcast - eMBMS, WiFi, 3G, and 4G to launch new services - or enhance existing services - with dramatically improved economics and scale.

We advised Quickplay in this transaction with a team that included Stuart Olley, Martin Mix and Alisha Virk.
