Yonge Street has reported on the explosive growth of technology company ViXS
twice in the past
year, and the good news has continued flowing for the company. Just last week,
ViXS was named one of the top tech companies in Canada and its CEO,
Sally Daubs, was named a top female entrepreneur by the prestigious Deloitte Fast 50.
Last month, the provincial government
announced an investment that will help ViXS develop a new energy-efficient media processor to power multimedia devices including set-top boxes, TVs and digital recorders. The devices will help stream content to mobile tablets and smart phones.
The investment will help ViXS create 107 new jobs in Toronto. "We're positioning ViXS as an ahead-of-the-curve leader in digital media delivery," Daubs said in the announcement. "Through this investment, we can increase our world-class employee base, expand our global presence and support the GTA's ever-growing ICT cluster development."
