Bedrock has met Salto’s advanced requirements, providing a complete streaming end-to-end solution able to uniquely aggregate a leading broadcast experience with 20 live channels including catch-up services and live sports events, and a premium SVoD catalogue gathering 10,000+ hours covering all genres and formats.
Jonas Engwall, Chief Executive Officer at Bedrock, said: “Bedrock is one of a few European streaming-tech companies with the scale and expertise needed to deliver a user experience on par with the global streaming giants. We are proud to power such a unique SVoD platform as Salto and we look forward to a long and fruitful partnership.”

Our partnership allows us to rely on Bedrock’s best-in-class streaming technology with promising potential. I would like to thank Bedrock’s teams for their hard work and contribution to Salto’s successful launch.”
