FirstIgnite is supporting the commercialization of Mississippi State University’s MAGE technology, a video switcher that facilitates feed transitions for light-staffed cable and streaming radio stations. This technology allows instant switching to live feeds during emergencies, ensures efficient feed management for understaffed stations, and maintains uninterrupted regular programming in the background.

This technology is applicable to television and radio broadcast stations, emergency response and news agencies, and streaming platforms requiring live feed capabilities. The video switcher market size was worth $5.62 billion in 2023 and is expected to increase to $9.41 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 6.17%.
