About MOG

MOG Technologies, established in 2002 by co-founders Luís Miguel Sampaio, Maria Joao Souto, and Alexandre Ulisses, has carved out a significant niche in the digital media technology sector from its headquarters in Maia, Portugal. The company operates as a key provider of end-to-end solutions for the professional media and broadcast industries, catering to a client base that has included prominent names such as Warner Bros., Al Jazeera, BBC, and Disney Channel.

The firm's business model centers on enabling digital transformation for any industry involved in creating, managing, and distributing content. This is achieved through a comprehensive suite of software and hardware solutions that address the entire media workflow, from ingest and transcoding to playout and distribution. MOG's product portfolio includes both software-defined, cloud-based platforms and on-premise hardware, demonstrating a flexible approach to infrastructure. Key offerings have included MAM4PRO for media asset management, Vizzi for turnkey OTT platforms, and a range of tools like mPORT and mCODER for versatile ingest, playout, and transcoding. Revenue is generated through the sale of these specialized products and recurring revenue from its cloud services, which encompass content management and distribution.

A pivotal event in the company's trajectory occurred in 2024 when EVS Broadcast Equipment, a leader in live video production technology, announced its acquisition of MOG Technologies. The agreement, signed in August 2024 and completed by October 2024, valued the deal at approximately EUR 4 million annually in revenue for MOG. This strategic acquisition was designed to enhance EVS's live production ecosystem by integrating MOG's file-based ingest and transcoding capabilities and bolstering its cloud technology offerings. Following the acquisition, the MOG Technologies team of nearly 50 employees, including former CEO Luís Miguel Sampaio, was integrated into EVS to reinforce its expertise in digital media and drive further innovation.
