History
IntelliMedia Networks Inc. is a US based company committed to the delivery of world-class media delivery solutions for our customers worldwide.
IntelliMedia Networks Inc got started with a feeling — a visceral, gut feeling — about the next great thing in tech. In 2005, when the market was tough financially, raising capital was hard, the video industry was moving at lightning speeds toward an undefined future. But it was a future and a challenge that we were determined to succeed at, and with a little structure, a little engineering, and a whole lot of innovative thinking, that’s exactly what we did.
