MIAMI, April 8, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Louis Hernandez Jr. of Black Dragon Capital, a growth-oriented private equity fund focused on technology investment opportunities in industries disrupted by digitization, and Digital Joy, a new Cloud-based Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) media technology company, today announced a strategic partnership with Beijing Jetsen Technology Co., Ltd, a large publicly traded media and technology China-based company. Under this exclusive relationship, Jetsen will distribute Digital Joy's suite in greater China and Digital Joy will westernize and commercialize several leading Jetsen products for the global market. The two companies plan simultaneous product launches at IBC.

"This strategic alliance offers tremendous upside for all parties," says Louis Hernandez Jr., founder of Digital Joy and CEO of Black Dragon Capital. "Digital Joy's Cloud-based, open API system holds the potential to fundamentally change the way content is created and distributed in China, while Jetsen's innovations will find unique inroads to the global marketplace."

Digital Joy combines the most advanced and proven cloud-based media technology with unmatched service and client friendly commercial terms to the industry to solve the most important issues it faces. This includes higher standards for service, private, hybrid and public cloud deployment options with subscription-based contracts.

"Digital Joy and Jetsen's partnership will enable the future transformation of the entire media industry to leverage the latest cloud enabled services," said Mohamed Abuagla, former CIO and CTO of Al Jazeera Media Network, and member of the Digital Joy team. "Consumers will gain access on a global scale to the best news content creation, curation and distribution platform on the market."

The company was formed by Louis Hernandez's Black Dragon Capital Development Fund, combined with some of the most well-known media technology executives in the world. Mr. Hernandez has an unmatched record for founding and growing market leading companies and creating billions in value, whether his $1+ billion sale of Open Solutions to Fiserv, the turn-around of Avid, or his recent founding efforts on behalf of Payveris and Ryff, two of the latest examples of disruptive leaders.

"Digital Joy's leadership team and advisors are accomplished media and technology leaders with a track record of creating market leading companies and significant enterprise value," said Shengli Han, CEO of Beijing Jetsen Technology Co. "As one of the largest media content and technology players in Asia, we are thrilled to work with Digital Joy to expand our product suite on a global scale, offering previously unavailable technologies that are open API based, legacy free and cloud enabled, to help Jetsen build a stronger market presence."
