mDistribute is owned by Golivemobile.com, a 4 year old global technology company with 100 employees based in Denver with technical offices in India and Philippines. We are the first and only self-serve mobile content licensing platform, where content creators can easily license to the mobile industry. Our platform has generated over $100 million in mobile content transactions since 2006.The idea for mDistribute was hatched in mid 2009 when parent company Golivemobile.com became bombarded with client requests for short form but high quality mobile video content. Due to the recent explosion of smartphones, driven largely by iPhone and Android devices, demand for such short form video content has risen dramatically in the mobile content industry. Despite this demand, Golivemobile realized that the content was fragmented and difficult to license, with no central marketplace to buy and sell rights. And so... mDistribute was born!In late 2009 mDistribute entered a private beta test, in which the Golivemobile clientele used the platform to purchase films from over 50 independent filmmakers. Filmmakers and buyers from over 40 countries were represented during the beta test. Over $200,000 in film sales were generated in a short period, primarily short form content such as short films and animation.
