Livebox Continues to Bring Live Video to More Partners, Helping More Content Creators Create

The Meet Group, a top provider of livestreaming video and creator economy solutions, announced that Tumblr, a microblogging and social networking website, has chosen Livebox as its video livestreaming and content provider. Live has been rolled out to Tumblr’s U.S. users, with global rollout planned.

With more minutes of video content produced through Livebox per day than Netflix has in its catalog, Livebox has become a leader in integrated livestreaming video and creator economy solutions. Livebox currently enables livestreaming video for seven of the top grossing 25 social networking apps in the US, along with The Meet Group’s portfolio of owned and operated mobile apps and services. The Meet Group represents the Video segment of ParshipMeet Group, an international leader in Dating and Video.

“We’re curious to see how Tumblr’s overflowing creativity will blossom now that users have access to native live streaming. Our creators are multi-modal and this is a new color in their palette,” said Matt Mullenweg, founder and CEO of Tumblr’s parent company Automattic.
