History

Valleyarm was founded in 2010 by a group of music industry executives as a digital music distribution platform. On July 8, 2010, Valleyarm acquired Brisbane-based competitor Musicadium.

In 2012, Valleyarm was presented with an iAward for New Media and Entertainment, recognizing the company's pioneering method of content delivery.[4]

By 2012, Valleyarm had broadened their services to include YouTube channel management and had been invited by Google to become a multi-channel network (MCN) partner. By 2014, Google considered Valleyarm the largest MCN in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. Their network includes over 160 channels of content owners and creators that generate over 300 million views and 1.5 billion minutes watched per month.

In 2016, former BMG, Warner Music Australia, and ARIA executive Ed St. John joined the board of directors.[5] In 2017, former Warner Music Australia and Murdoch Books executive Mark Ashbridge joined as Managing Director.
