About

eBUS is a bleeding edge and industry leading cloud computing software development firm for video content management and distribution companies in the media industry.

Throughout Asia, TV Commercials are currently physically delivered to Broadcasters using plastic polycarbonate video tapes. This method emits large quantities of Greenhouse gas emissions through the manufacturing and disposal of plastic and the use of numerous couriers, flights and train services to deliver these tapes around the world between parties.

eBUS has eliminated the need for traditional delivery methods and tape production. eBUSdelivery is a cloud based solution that digitally delivers TV Commercials to Broadcasters, Web and Mobile media using the Internet. The result: flexibility, faster delivery, safer delivery, higher quality delivery, saves money, manages all stock footage and estimated to reduce the impact on the environment by more than 95%.
