Hart Energy Media announced on April 1 its acquisition of Houston-based Gotham Image Works, a leading video production and corporate event company.
Gotham Image Works is a full-service video communications company, specializing in the production of video programming, graphics/animation and the staging of corporate conferences and special events. The acquisition, a part of Hart Energy’s strategy to provide more comprehensive and robust content to serve the rapidly-changing energy industry, is closely aligned with the April 8 launch of the company’s new HartEnergy.com website that will prominently feature video content on its homepage.
“As the energy landscape undergoes significant transformation, the thirst for high-quality news and information has never been greater. We’re expanding Hart Energy’s video programming and production capabilities in response to our audiences and advertising clients who engage deeply in our rich media content,” Hart Energy CEO John Hartig commented in a company release.
The acquisition of Gotham Image Works allows Hart Energy to materially expand its video news coverage, webinar and podcast offerings to its audiences and advertising clients across Hart Energy’s digital, event and social media platforms. Video content has been an integral and growing part of Hart Energy’s editorial coverage for years with video profiles of industry executives, analysis and news.
“Gotham’s contributions will become extremely valuable as we increase the breadth and immediacy of video coverage for breaking news, thought leadership and subjects of interest across the energy industry,” Hartig said.
David Skalsky, Gotham’s founder and president, and his team joined the Hart Energy organization on April 1, and the buildout of a state-of-the-art video production studio in Hart Energy’s corporate office is currently underway, according to the release.
Skalsky added, “this next chapter for Gotham adds incredible scale for our long-term clients and positions the combined organization for accelerated growth.”
Since 1973, Hart Energy has been the global energy industry’s comprehensive and omnichannel source for news, data and analysis. At Hart Energy, the company’s mission is to create, aggregate, organize and analyze timely and targeted information across platforms in ways that business professionals and investors can trust for making energy-related decisions.
