Dalet, which designs, develops, and sells Media Asset Management (MAM) and digital media solutions, said in a press statement its acquisition of Gruppo TNT will expand its product offerings built around an open, IT-centric framework, and provides additional functionalities that can be easily incorporated into its flagship product Dalet Enterprise Edition.

"We are very impressed with Gruppo TNT’s deep knowledge and experience in advanced technologies that are complementary to Dalet and that improve broadcast workflows, especially in live event programming and fast-paced content production environments.
