Universal Pictures Inks with Sohonet

"Sohonet announced that it has signed a deal with Universal Pictures to provide the studio with a private global network that it can use for collaborating on its international marketing, production and distribution needs.

Universal reportedly plans to use this technology for distributing marketing materials, ads, film trailers and production work as well as film production, pushing feature films to vendors, trailer finishing, visual FX, international language versions, television commercial work, and trailer distribution.

Sohonet, a U.K.-based company whose North American headquarters are in Los Angeles, recently announced an agreement with Smartjog, a company that provides distribution and file transfer platforms that allows companies to move information via secure networks. The deal will allow SmartJog clients to benefit from Sohonet's high bandwidth network and solutions, while Sohonet clients will have access to SmartJog's global footprint and end-to-end applications."
