EVS Broadcast Equipment was founded in February 1994 by Pierre L’Hoest and Laurent Minguet in Liège, Belgium. EVS’ early years were marked by the pioneering work of the founding team in tapeless television technology and the launch of the iconic Live Slow-Motion (LSM) system, which rapidly became the standard replay technology for all broadcast sporting events across the globe.
Shortly after its foundation, EVS became a key player in the industry, offering its reliable and innovative technology and providing top support to customers located in many parts of the world. Over the years, the company has maintained its industry-leading position, building on its solid and reliable technological know-how and widening its product portfolio along the way. EVS now offers a full set of solutions that spans the entire production life cycle and meets the need for a more flexible approach to video production.
Customer success keeps the company on its toes. It is committed to helping customers grow as the industry evolves, and it continues to invest in the latest technologies to deliver on this promise. Through its pioneering work in intellectual property, artificial intelligence, HDR, the cloud, etc., it continues to remain ahead of the curve, while ensuring that customers are empowered with smart and scalable solutions that will produce the best live stories today and tomorrow.
