Lincoln, NE (PRWEB) January 14, 2016

Hudl and Nelnet NNI announced today a joint venture to own, lead and expand the video analysis company Studiocode Group. Formed in 2003 by Sportstec (the performance analysis company recently acquired by Hudl), Studiocode now helps more than 300 medical, educational, and research institutions in more than 30 countries collect and analyze data, and conduct training simulations.

With Studiocode, videos can be tagged and indexed, allowing users to identify trends and areas for improvement with tools similar to Hudl's current offering for sports teams.

"We've always kept an eye on opportunities for video analysis in other industries," said David Graff, Hudl CEO. "This joint venture allows us to explore those opportunities, while still keeping our core focus on sports. Given Nelnet's experience in education, and its reputation for quality service, it was our first choice for a partner."

As part of the effort to expand and quickly provide new updates to its users, Studiocode is adding to its team, now based in Lincoln, Nebraska at the Fuse co-working space, and are actively recruiting a quality assurance specialist.

"We see the enormous potential of video in education, one of our core markets," said Bob Beiersdorf, Executive Director of Business Development at Nelnet. "Investing in technology companies that move the education space forward is a Nelnet focus, and Studiocode is making tremendous strides in that arena. We are enthusiastic about the possibilities that will emerge from this partnership."

Nelnet is a leader in education software and services, and brings tremendous customer service capabilities to the joint venture.

"We know this new dedicated partnership means great things for our existing and future clients—the future is very bright," said Joe Salem, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Studiocode. "It gives us the opportunity to accelerate progress toward and an even better video product with the commitment of two innovative organizations like Hudl and Nelnet."

With extensive plans to drive information across new and familiar industries, Studiocode looks forward to a successful 2016. Visit StudiocodeGroup.com/Studiocode-Acquisition for more information and updates along the way.
