Building on an existing global network
The business has a global presence across Europe, North America and Australasia, including locations in London, Los Angeles, New York and Sydney. It employs more than 120 people and has grown revenues by 30 per cent in the last three years.
LDC invested in the business in March 2021 to supporting the existing management team, led by CEO Chuck Parker, to further build on its international growth strategy and explore complementary acquisitions.
In 2023, Sohonet acquired Los Angeles-based 5th Kind, a leading cloud-based media software platform for the film and TV production industry.
LDC has a proven track record of backing growing TMT business and supporting ambitious acquisitive growth strategies. We are really excited to work closely with the team at LDC to further enhance our market leading products and services.”
