From 1 June Kingston inmedia, one of the industrys leading communications service providers, will trade simply as Inmedia. The change follows the leveraged buyout in April 2004 by management and The Carlyle Group, a global private equity firm. The focus of the name change is business and brand continuity. Inmedia will continue to deliver broadcast, enterprise and carrier solutions for content owners, programme makers, broadcasters, corporations, carriers and ISPs using satellite and terrestrial technologies.
It really is business as usual for those who work at Inmedia and in the past few weeks since the acquisition weve had lots of positive feedback from the industry and our customers. We chose to stay with the Inmedia name as we feel it is very relevant to all aspects of our business. In all fairness a lot of our customers and partners have called us Inmedia for some time now and we wanted to make sure that they know they can expect the same high levels of service and product innovation that they have become used to, says Nick Thompson, Chief Executive of Inmedia.
