3 Avid’s heritage began with digital editing and mixing with some of the world’s best loved creative tools which defined an industry… Avid is… A premier provider of technology solutions to create, manage, distribute, and monetize media content ... But the industry evolved as more of the workflow became digitized creating distribution and monetization issues for our customers … …Avid initially refused to make that shift, staying stubbornly siloed in the creative suite… …now Avid Everywhere empowers our customers by connecting a creative idea with its expression and consumption as a monetized media asset.
