-Firm receives significant investment from Southport Lane and
announces public listing
Massive Interactive Inc. (OTCQB:HUGE), a leader in platform
software and design for multi-screen entertainment, announced its
shares are now traded on OTCMarkets.com under the ticker symbol
‘HUGE’.
The listing comes after Southport Lane Management, LLC
(“Southport”), a New York private equity firm, acquired a majority
stake in Massive. The Southport acquisition will allow Massive to
execute its growth strategy and innovative product roadmap into
2014 and build on its position in the telecommunications,
broadcast, hospitality and airline sectors worldwide.
“We are delighted about this new opportunity with Massive,” said
Southport Lane President, Jeff Leach. “Not only is the company an
innovator in the ‘TV Everywhere’ sector, but it has a highly
experienced and capable management team who have built a profitable
company over the last 17 years. We believe that our investment will
place Massive in an even better position to expand.”
Massive CEO Ron Downey said, “We are thrilled to have
Southport’s team now working with us to accelerate our success in
the ‘TV Everywhere’/on-demand sector which, we believe, is one of
the most exciting and fast-moving industry categories in the
world.”
Downey continued: “Southport Lane’s investment and our public
listing will enable us to expand Massive’s current service offering
around the world and assist in the launch of our new managed
multi-screen video service delivery platform, Massivision, which
will be previewed at CES (Las Vegas) in January. Massivision will
deliver an end-to-end, enterprise-grade solution for content owners
and distributors, of any size, to deliver multi-device video
entertainment services to their consumers.”
