Vizrt said Thursday, November 12, that it completed its acquisition of Chyron, bringing two broadcast graphics and live-production technology suppliers under one owner. Financial terms were not disclosed.
The transaction combines businesses serving television newsrooms, regional networks and sports productions. Chyron’s products include the PRIME graphics platform, NewsTicker and the cloud-based Chyron LIVE production system.
Vizrt said Chyron customers would continue to receive support during integration, with existing production workflows protected. Chyron President and Chief Executive Officer Mike Truex said customers would gain access to broader expertise and investment through Vizrt.
The announcement did not set out a product-integration timetable or detail future pricing, staffing or the Chyron brand’s long-term status.
