Film & TV Distribution Tech Provider Joins TransPerfect Media

NEW YORK and LOS ANGELES, March 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — TransPerfect, the world’s largest provider of language and AI solutions for global business, today announced it has acquired Blu Digital Group, a leader in digital media services, cloud-based workflow automation, and content distribution technology for the media and entertainment industry. Blu Digital Group will operate as a division of TransPerfect Media, a leading provider of post-production and localization services.

For 18 years, Blu Digital Group has provided digital media services and cloud-based software solutions to streamline content processing, quality control, and distribution for major studios and streaming platforms.

As the company expanded into localization services, the need for additional resources to support clients made identifying a partner with a global footprint and proven technology a priority. Combining TransPerfect Media’s AI-driven localization expertise with Blu Digital Group’s media software and automation solutions sets a new standard for seamless content management and delivery.

With this acquisition, TransPerfect clients will have access to Blu Digital Group’s proprietary SaaS products and automation technologies, including BluConductor™, BluQC™, and BluSpot™. Blu Digital Group’s clients will gain immediate access to TransPerfect’s extensive AI- and human-powered language services as well as the GlobalLink global performance platform, including GlobalLink Media for comprehensive management of subtitling, dubbing, and other multilingual media requirements.

Blu Digital Group will become a division of TransPerfect Media and will continue its core operations and service offerings under the leadership of CEO Paulette Pantoja. Pantoja will join the senior leadership team of TransPerfect Media, ensuring continuity in vision, operations, and strategic growth.

“Our mission has always been to drive efficiency, automation, and innovation in media distribution,” stated Pantoja. “With TransPerfect’s global reach and expertise in localization, we are now positioned to offer an even more powerful solution for the media and entertainment industry.”

TransPerfect President Phil Shawe commented, “While we’re excited to combine Blu Digital’s distribution software with our broader suite of automation tools for film and TV—successful mergers are really about the people. TransPerfect welcomes all Blu Digital team members.”
