JW Player Acquires InPlayer to Expand Its Monetization and Audience Insights Offering
17.1.2023 19:00:00 EET | Business Wire | Press release
JW Player, the leading SaaS video platform for broadcasters, publishers, and other video-driven companies, today announced it is acquiring InPlayer, a leading provider of subscription management and identity management technology. The acquisition broadens JW Player’s end-to-end video platform capabilities by helping broadcasters and other video-driven businesses more easily monetize their subscription-based business and by providing rich audience insights.
In June of 2021, JW Player announced it raised $100M from LLR Partners to build subscription and other monetization tools as part of its end-to-end video platform. This acquisition demonstrates JW Player's ability to execute against its mission of building the best video platform for helping their customers better monetize video content.
"Today is an important step in further differentiating JW Player's video monetization capabilities from that of other video platforms," said Dave Otten, CEO and co-founder of JW Player. "With the acquisition of InPlayer, we are now able to combine their best-in-class subscription management, payments, and identity management capabilities with our market-leading advertising enablement capabilities."
"I'm thrilled about this acquisition as it sets the foundation for taking JW Player's video platform and expanding it from the industry's leading AVOD platform to also include a host of new capabilities for integrated SVOD and TVOD," said Jeroen Wijering, CPO and co-founder of JW Player. "InPlayer's identity management technology will also provide in-depth audience insights and secure access to video content."

Study: Heatwaves Increase Cough Urge, Which Salt Aerosols Reduce15.9.2026 16:15:00 EEST | Press release
SC Therapeutics, with University North Carolina, Imperial College London, and Boston University, announced publication on Tuesday in Nature Scientific Reports of results from a multi-institutional study indicating that the aridity inherent in heatwaves increases cough hypersensitivity in human airways by collapsing mucus onto cilia in a manner common to chronic respiratory diseases, such as cystic fibrosis, and asthma. The researchers find that alkaline aerosols of magnesium salts reverse mucosal collapse for several hours, and reduce cough hypersensitivity as reflected in placebo-adjusted suppression of daily cough bout rate (59%, p=0.03) and persistence of suppression post treatment for 1 to 3 weeks in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 10 refractory chronic cough patients. “Paris recorded 5,764 excess deaths between 17 June and 2 July, a period of time during which we report atmospheric aridity in the city increased approximately 3-fold relative to the 35 year a
