Our Partners
Identified by leading screen industry associations including the Computer Animation Studios of Ontario and FilmOntario as a key strategic priority for their member companies, SirtNet was developed from 2013 to 2017 to meet demand for a dedicated, secure high-speed fibre collaboration network with on-net IT services including storage and render. Current participants include leading animation, visual effects, postproduction, content production, software companies, and soundstages. SirtNet is connecting companies throughout Toronto and will ultimately enable collaboration around the world.
SirtNet has been invaluable... It’s enabled us to work in a much more efficient manner by bringing key players together without interruptions or delays and that translates into getting our productions done on time.
SirtNet was a way to let everybody in Toronto connect together and do exactly what they haven’t been able to do until now.

“He talked about one of the big problems in the industry was being connected and being able to transfer files and share files and work together collaboratively.” At the time, “everyone was doing their own thing,” said Chris. Production companies were struggling to send content over the internet
