QuickPlay Acquires FLO TV's Network Ops Center

Toronto, Canada-based QuickPlay Media is acquiring the network operations center assets of FLO TV, the mobile TV services owned by Qualcomm that was shut down earlier this year.

Terms of the deal for the 30,000-square foot data and operations center in San Diego, Calif., were not disclosed. QuickPlay's interest in expanding its footprint in the U.S. and rapidly growing demand for QuickPlay's solutions for distributing content to tablets, smartphones and other IP-connected devices, played a key role in the decision, explained Wayne Purboo, president and CEO of QuickPlay Media.
