Gee Broadcast


Gee Broadcast Systems Ltd was founded in the UK in early 1987 by Keith and Sarah Gee. The company was initially set up to provide a design and installation service for broadcast Television systems but expanded to equipment sales and distribution, including videographics and "engineering" products. Later the 'Geevs' family of video servers was developed and led to growth particularly in exports. Exports of Geevs have reached over 50 countries and formed the largest part of the Gee Broadcast business.
In 2004, Gee Broadcast acquired Lightworks in order to provide a tapeless production system with multichannel servers and editing systems.
In 2007, Gee Broadcast Systems with Lightworks had a team of engineers based in Basingstoke, Hampshire, UK with of office and workshop space, flexibly configured to allow the manufacturing and testing of large and small Geevs and Lightworks systems, together with a range of distributed products.
In 2009, Gee Broadcast Systems Ltd went into administration, and was dissolved in November 2010. Prior to this, certain assets of the company were acquired by EditShare.
