Samba TV (formerly Flingo) is a
Smart TV apps publishing and Smart TV advertising company, co-founded in 2008 by early employees of
BitTorrent (company), including Samba’s current CEO,
Ashwin Navin. Samba TV develops software for televisions,
set-top boxes, smart phones and tablets to enable
interactive television. Through its portfolio of applications and TV platform technologies, Samba TV is built directly into the TV or set-top box and will recognize onscreen content—live or time-shifted—and make relevant information available to users at their request. Through
APIs and
SDKs for
mobile application software developers, Samba TV is usable on a
second screen or the TV itself. Samba TV applications are currently available on over 30 million screens in 118 countries. More information can be found at
