“Since inception, our goal has always been to deliver to consumers the highest quality entertainment experience possible, and with the global market for digital media expected to grow substantially over the coming years, DTS is well positioned to enjoy significant growth. Our new European Headquarters in Limerick is an integral part of our strategy in support of that growth and also will enable us to enhance our company’s service to international customers. We appreciate the assistance of the Irish Government through IDA Ireland and are confident that Limerick is a great location for us.” Jon Kirchner, President and CEO of DTS, Inc

DTS Inc., (NASDAQ DTSI) is a leading global provider of entertainment technology, products and services to the audio and image entertainment markets. Headquartered in California, the company employs 325 people across its cinema, consumer electronics and digital imaging business world-wide.

DTS was founded in 1990 by entrepreneur and scientist Terry Beard and funded by Universal City Studios, Inc. and other investors. In 1993, DTS introduced its master-quality sound with the release of Steven Spielberg’s Jurassic Park. Its innovative digital process quickly established DTS as a leading provider of premium quality, discrete multi-channel audio for cinema. Today, every major film studio in the United States uses DTS multi-channel digital sound, and virtually all major Hollywood feature films are released with soundtracks in the DTS format. Core competitors in this industry are Dolby and Sony
 

DTS established a European headquarters in Limerick, Ireland in 2007. DTS Licensing Limited (DLL) serves the European marketplace through the following activities: Management, Marketing, Sales, Business Development, Finance and Engineering.

The Irish operation also manages DTS's global client licensing programs as part of the 2007 restructuring of the DTS global licensing business. A key part of the restructuring plan involved transferring the administration of global licensing management to DLL, whose location, time zone and access to the EU and international markets it was believed would enhance their ability to serve global customers.
