LX Ventures Inc. ( TSX VENTURE:LXV) ("LXV" or the "Company") and Copper.io, Inc. ("Copper") are pleased to jointly announce that over the holiday period the team at Copper provided support for encoding videos in a number of formats for the top downloaded app on the Apple App Store, Flipagram. Flipagram's technical team used the Copper Pandastream service among the tools in their technology stack that allowed them to successfully scale their app to millions of users.
Pandastream provides a unique development application that allows for real time, dedicated video encoding in the cloud. Its unique model for deployment can provide cost savings of up to 70% for its rapidly expanding user base. Ed Byrne, CEO of Copper, said "We were delighted to work with Flipagram and congratulate them on their success. It is a real testament to the power of the platform and team we are putting together in Copper that we were able to collaborate with Flipagrams technical team while they were scaling the app over the holiday period."
"This is an example of why LX Ventures is acquiring Copper. Copper is showing how quickly and profitably their business can scale. We are excited to accelerate the disruption of the way that companies deploy applications globally by using the Copper platform. This is just the start from a great team and great product," said Mike Edwards, CEO of LX Ventures.
