 PROFILE
Ampex wants to take video a step further. Historically a specialist in high-performance recording products, the company shifted its focus to Internet video and digital image storage. Reorganized as a holding company, its units focus on Internet video broadcasting (iNEXTV), digital storage for television archiving and government intelligence gathering (Ampex Data Systems), and Internet video technology (Internet Technology Group). Ampex, which invented the videocassette recorder, derives more than 80% of its revenues from licensing its patents. Looking to concentrate on its iNEXTV operations, the company is trying to sell its Data Systems business. CEO and chairman Edward Bramson owns 15% of Ampex.
