Digital Signage Company, Industry Weapon, Acquires FireSign

▤ Summary

At the end of last year, Anode decided to move away from owning and maintaining a proprietary digital signage platform. The acquisition by Industry Weapon was a natural fit as Industry Weapon is focusing on programs that allow digital agencies, like Anode, to retain its content and custom application business with customers while providing a platform to deliver content and code safely and securely. "Digital agencies require a platform that does not hinder their ability to make money consulting, creating content and building customized applications. "Not only does Industry Weapons acquisition of FireSign give more flexibility to our customers, we are now able to focus all our resources on the creative services where we create the most value," stated Jeff Peden, Director of Sales and Marketing for Anode. The SaaS solution enables subscribers to design, schedule and publish multimedia content and integrated data sources to screens, kiosks, tablets and mobile devices.
