Qumu was born in 2002, when Yahoo purchased the dot com-era search engine company Inktomi. As part of that transaction, Yahoo received a technology for managing and publishing video assets called Media Publisher, which Inktomi had invested significant dollars into developing. Two entrepreneurs and former eScene executives who believed video communication could shape the future of business approached Yahoo, made an offer for the Media Publisher product, and spent the next six years developing it into a fully-fledged enterprise video platform?which they rebranded as Qumu in 2008. In 2014 Qumu acquired London-based video platform provider Kulu Valley, and rebranded their video platform as Qumu Cloud. This acquisition allowed Qumu to diversify the deployment types it could support, and in early 2016 Qumu installed its first hybrid enterprise video deployment. Since that deployment, demand for hybrid enterprise video implementations?where Qumu is the clear market leader?has grown significantly, and is predicted by industry analysts to grow at a similar or even greater rate than the demand for pure cloud-based enterprise video. Between 2016 and today, use of the Qumu Enterprise Video Platform has increased significantly as Qumu has expanded to Europe, Asia and the Middle East. And today Qumu is growing, financially stable, and regularly identified as a leader in the Enterprise Video space by every analyst who covers the industry. Mission:?Qumu is the leading provider of a best-in-class platform to create, manage, secure, distribute and measure the success of live and on demand video for the intelligent enterprise. Backed by the most trusted and experienced team in the industry, the Qumu platform enables global organizations to drive employee engagement, increase access to video, and modernize the workplace by providing a more efficient and effective way to share knowledge.
