Microsoft continues to work to add more video creation and editing tools to its stable with its latest acquisition, Clipchamp.
Microsoft has acquired Brisbane, Australia-based Clipchamp, a video-editing and creation platform company, for an undisclosed amount. Clipchamp’s technology, at some point, will be integrated with Microsoft 365 for consumers, education and business customers, according to Microsoft. Clipchamp already was working with Microsoft as a partner. Clipchamp also had partnered with Google, integrating its video-creation technology with Google Cloud, Google Workspace and on Chromebooks. The Google partnership — along with Microsoft’s desire to tap into the video creator community — are likely reasons for the Microsoft Clipchamp acquisition, announed September 7.
