Graphics company has not revealed the finances behind the deal
Vizrt has acquired broadcast titling and graphics company Chyron.
The finances behind the deal are undisclosed, and the two businesses will now work on integrating Chyron customers into Vizrt’s operations. Customers will be able to continue using the workflows they have invested in, and Vizrt says they will be “fully supported”.
Vizrt hopes the acquisition will expand its presence in the US, as well as in regional markets and sport. Over time, Chyron customers will be given access to Vizrt’s wider capabilities, and Vizrt will continue to invest in its AI and agentic media production workflows for them.
Rohit Nagarajan, CEO of Vizrt, said: “Media organizations run on deeply embedded, complex workflows that underpin their operations today. Yet they also need to be fit for the future in a world increasingly disrupted by AI.
“Respecting the workflows customers depend on today while helping them prepare for the future will be our guiding principle as we bring the two organizations together. We’re delighted to welcome Chyron customers to the Vizrt family.”
Mike Truex, president and CEO of Chyron, said: “Chyron and Vizrt are two trusted brands built on a shared foundation of continuous innovation and customer excellence. Vizrt is raising the bar for our industry, and has the scale and vision to support our next phase.
“Our customers will continue to receive the same world-class support and partnership they rely on, while benefiting from the wider expertise, accelerated investment and broader technology roadmap available through Vizrt.”
