Valsoft enters Media and Broadcasting Vertical with acquisition of VSN

MONTREAL, Sept. 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ - Valsoft Corporation Inc. ("Valsoft"), a Montreal-based company specializing in the acquisition and development of vertical market software businesses, is pleased to announce the acquisition of VSN Video Stream Networks S.L. ("VSN"), an industry leader in media and broadcasting solutions.

Operating out of Terrassa, Barcelona in Spain, VSN provides solutions in media management, production, planning, multiplatform content delivery and broadcast or publishing through linear and non-linear channels. The acquisition of VSN puts Aspire Software (an operating group of Valsoft) in a new vertical and strengthens Aspire's presence in Spain.

Founded in 1990, VSN is an industry leader in the Spanish market, with offices around the world, including North America, the Asia-Pacific region and Latin America. VSN's tools manage the entire media life cycle, from ingest to broadcast and archive, in a seamless and unified way. For over 30 years, VSN has helped companies that work daily with video content improve their efficiency and productivity.

"This new stage with Valsoft is, without a doubt, a great opportunity for VSN," stated Jordi Utiel, VSN's CEO. "We are thrilled with the strategic projection that Valsoft will bring us, expanding and consolidating our international expansion and outlining a new horizon for VSN in the Broadcast and Media industry."

With this acquisition, VSN becomes the second Spanish-based company to join the Aspire Software family along with construction solutions leader Telematel. By joining Aspire Software, VSN will be able to bring even better service to customers, while accelerating global expansion efforts. VSN founder and CEO Jordi Utiel will remain with the company to ensure a smooth transition in ownership and the global leadership team will continue to lead the business and will drive the product and company forward.

One of the main pillars of Valsoft is to invest in established organizations and foster an entrepreneurial environment that allows an organization to grow as a leader in its respective industry. Valsoft is not a private equity or venture capital organization. Rather, it aims to grow organizations sustainably, through long-term partnerships with existing management.

"We are excited to enter the Media and Broadcasting vertical and partner with a strong industry leader providing innovative solutions to global tier 1 customers. We are impressed by the VSN value proposition and the customer-centric culture that Jordi and his team have built over the last few decades." said Michael Assi, CEO of Aspire Software, an operating group of Valsoft. "We look forward to welcoming VSN customers, employees and partners to the Aspire Software family."

Under the Valsoft umbrella, VSN will continue to help its clients carry out their daily operations with maximum security and efficiency. Aspire is excited to work with the VSN team to expand and uphold the exceptional culture VSN has formed.
