In 1991, Michel Artières and Dominique Edelin founded Ateme with a vision to transform how video content is delivered and experienced worldwide. Recognizing early on that the future of media would be defined by quality, efficiency, and accessibility, they built a company dedicated to pushing the boundaries of video compression technology. What started as a design house for video compression has evolved into the global leader in video delivery solutions.
Today, Ateme partners with the world's most influential content providers, service providers, and streaming platforms - including Netflix, Disney, Paramount, and BBC - to deliver exceptional viewing experiences on any screen. Through continuous investment in R&D and innovation, Ateme's award-winning engineering teams have pioneered breakthroughs in codecs like HEVC, H.264, and AV1, consistently leading quality benchmarks for UHD, HDR, and low-latency streaming. But their commitment goes beyond technology: guided by a robust CSR policy, Ateme is dedicated to making entertainment greener and more sustainable, designing efficient solutions that reduce bandwidth consumption and energy waste without compromising quality. Listed on Euronext and serving nearly 1,000 customers across 20+ global offices, Ateme continues to shape the future of video delivery.
