Endeavor Streaming is a multinational digital video distribution and streaming company. In 2025, Deltatre acquired Endeavor Streaming, marking a new era for both companies and further strengthening Deltatre’s leadership across the digital and OTT market with broader capabilities and expanded reach. The company works with professional sports leagues and entertainment companies to distribute live and on-demand content. It also offers various business services.

Previously operating as a subsidiary of the American company Endeavor, Endeavor Streaming was formed in January 2019 in part through the rebranding of NeuLion, which had been founded in 2004 and acquired by Endeavor in 2018.

History

Predecessor companies

NeuLion, later Endeavor Streaming, was founded as a private technology company in 2004. Headquartered in Plainview, New York,{{Citation | publication-date =November 18, 2013 | access-date = August 27, 2023 | publication-date =April 2, 2018 | access-date = August 21, 2023 | publication-date =June 9, 2008 | access-date = August 21, 2023

By 2015, customers included the National Football League (NFL), Sky in New Zealand, and the EFL, among others. With competition in the sports streaming market increasing, NeuLion lost the NHL as a client when the league moved its contract to BAMTech. NeuLion acquired DivX, Inc. in 2015, with former DivX CEO Kanaan Jemili becoming CEO of NeuLion, which gave NeuLion access to DivX's 4K Ultra HD technology, and integrated into devices such as LG, Samsung, and Sony.

In 2016, the company partnered with the NBA, UFC, and Univision on trial streams of 4K games, where NeuLion's 2016 broadcast of UFC 205 became the first global pay-per-view event to be live streamed in 4K. NeuLion acquired Saffron Digital in that year, and Roy Reichbach was named President and CEO. In March 2018, NeuLion agreed to be acquired by Endeavor for USD$250 million, becoming a privately held subsidiary.{{Citation | publication-date =March 26, 2018 | access-date = August 21, 2023 | publication-date =October 13, 2016 | access-date = August 27, 2023
