Like Media has undertaken numerous investments within the realm of technology. These investments have been strategically pursued to augment the prowess of our own services, alongside our "go to market" ventures, operating under a diverse array of brands.

In regard to the Like Media technology stack, a guiding principle shapes our actions: "Any endeavor we undertake for our own benefit must also be accessible and fitting for implementation by other broadcasting entities."
