Proximity Works is where high-growth teams go when the stakes are high and excellence is non-negotiable.
We're not just another tech company. We're a plug-and-play, AI-native powerhouse — a global ecosystem of companies across engineering, design, AI, media, and storytelling — built to help ambitious teams scale without breaking what made them great.
We've been global since Day 1 — quietly building some of the most mission-critical systems and products in sports, media, entertainment, and fintech. We operate across 25+ cities and 4 countries.
From scaling MVPs into platforms used by millions to turning 6-hour content workflows into 15-minute sprints, we don't just talk about AI. We ship it.
We build fast, we build lean — and we build to last.

- Proximity Tech → Engineering Performance & Scale with our AI Innovation Units
- Studio Proximity → Product design, branding, motion design, and UX for sports, OTT, and beyond
- Colarity AI → In-house AI products like Metavision that automate content creation
- 42PX Media → AI-powered storytelling and smart campaigns
