San Francisco, Calif., February 22, 2011 — Grass Valley™ is pleased to announce that Broadcast Systems & Equipment (BSE), a leading supplier/systems integrator to the broadcast, telco, and cable industries in Canada, has joined the growing network of authorized resellers handling Grass Valley equipment and systems around the world.

BSE has signed on to become a dealer of Grass Valley’s extensive portfolio for customers across Canada and will handle the entire Grass Valley product line, including cameras, production switchers, video servers, as well as the entire line of shrink-wrapped Professional AV products (including the ADVC® video converters for Macintosh or Windows platforms, and MEDIAEDGE® video distribution system).

“We like the depth of the Grass Valley product line and the company’s strength in broadcast servers, cameras, and news editing products and we think that our customers will benefit from all that Grass Valley has to offer,” said Joe Scrivo, President at BSE. “The camera and server markets are two key areas that this new agreement will help us penetrate to a much larger extent than we have previously. It adds a whole new dimension to our business.”
