NeuLion

What NeuLion does

NeuLion is a digital video and OTT technology company founded in 2004 and headquartered in Plainview, New York. Originally listed on the TSX under ticker NLN and now delisted, the company built a specialized streaming platform serving sports rights holders, leagues, and media companies with end-to-end infrastructure for live event broadcasting, video-on-demand delivery, transaction processing, and direct-to-consumer app deployment. Its successor operating entity, Endeavor Streaming, was acquired by Deltatre in 2025 and now operates as part of Deltatre's broader digital and OTT portfolio.

The company's core offering is a scalable, end-to-end streaming platform augmented by predictive data, machine learning capabilities, and the Vesper Insights analytics product. Platform throughput includes 25,000+ live events delivered annually, $200M+ in annual transaction volume, and 3,000+ app submissions per year. Named customers span tier-1 sports properties including UFC Fight Pass, WWE Network, WNBA League Pass, UEFA.tv, Sky Sport Now, Longhorn Network, EuroLeague (ELTV), RugbyPass TV, New Zealand Rugby, and several North American professional team streaming services. Revenue is generated through recurring platform licensing, transaction processing, and app submission support, delivered via an enterprise field sales motion targeting rights holders globally.

Historically, NeuLion pursued an inorganic growth strategy, acquiring JumpTV (2008), Interactive Netcasting Systems (2009), TransVideo International (2010), DivX (2015, $62.5M), and Saffron Digital (2016) to build out its digital video technology stack. Following a restructuring into Endeavor Streaming, the business was acquired by Deltatre in 2025, creating a combined entity positioned as a digital and streaming platform leader serving the global sports and media market.
