SintecMedia

SintecMedia designs and implements innovative management systems for the broadcast, cable and satellite industries. Since its establishment in 2000, SintecMedia’s advanced software tools have met the growing gap between established sales, traffic and scheduling management systems and the new requirements created by a rapidly changing business environment.

Industry consolidation, new forms of advertising and exciting developments in technology such as digital television, VOD and PVRs – all require new business infrastructure tools that can schedule, manage and maximize revenues. To address these needs, SintecMedia employs an experienced team of media analysts and developers who apply cutting-edge technologies based on modern development tools. Sintec’s team has created OnAir®, a unique management system that enables media companies to adopt new technologies and business models. OnAir provides the tools for these companies to apply new media revenue models and reposition themselves to address emerging forms of media distributions.

OnAir is the system of choice for the world’s leading media companies, including ABC and NBC Universal (USA), CBC (Canada), BBC (UK), Mediaset (Italy), STAR (India) and ABC Australia, among others.
