History

Since 2002 Vivesta is housed on the Mediapark in Hilversum, the center of all professional broadcast activity in the Netherlands. Vivesta mainly focusses on the media and entertainment market, although our solutions are increasingly being used in other markets like advertising and corporate communications. Our goal is to support our customers in translating their needs in reliable and user friendly solutions with state-of-the-art technology available today, avoiding the many possible pitfalls by using our extensive knowledge and experience with the introduction of innovative solutions in existing workflows.

Vivesta is founded by Dario Buma, Thijs Vanderhallen and Dennis Verhoeven, all former employees of the Innovation department of the Dutch Broadcast Facility Company (NOB, i.e. the 'dutch BBC'). As members of the innovation department they were responsible for company wide research and development and the introduction of innovative cross media technologies and services for television, radio, internet and mobile. Next to projects that served the immediate commercial needs, research was also being done for the long term continuity of NOB in the form of many national and European projects, like Vista (1996), Weptel (1997), VIP (2000), Share it! (2002) and Uluru (2002).

Vivesta is a healthy, independent and profitable company with no debts and no investors.
