Text Groove Signals Strategic Entry into the European Media and Communications Market Ahead of MWC 2026

VICTORIA, BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA, February 25, 2026 — Text Groove, the leading audience engagement platform trusted by over 3,300 media organizations across North America, announced its strategic expansion into Europe ahead of Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2026 in Barcelona. The company will be on site at MWC to hold meetings with potential distribution partners, media companies, and enterprise partners.

Text Groove's European expansion reflects growing demand for reliable, compliant audience engagement infrastructure across the region. Across Europe, organizations are seeking modern, interactive tools that enable participation at scale while operating within complex regulatory environments.

"Europe represents a natural next chapter for Text Groove," said Curtis Machek, CEO & Co-Founder at Text Groove. "We've spent a decade supporting live, time-sensitive, audience engagement infrastructure where reliability and compliance matter. As broadcasters modernize audience interaction, we know our experience, compliance posture, and humanistic approach aligns well with the needs of European organisations."

Founded in Canada, Text Groove has developed deep expertise at the intersection of broadcast media and telecommunications. Its platform supports automated workflows, real-time audience messaging, and carrier-agnostic routing designed for high-volume, time-sensitive use cases such as live radio, public service announcements, contests, and listener feedback.

Text Groove enters the European market with:

• Proven credibility: Text Groove supports more than 3,300 media organisations across North America with workflows and operational models purpose-built for live, real-time audience engagement.

• European validation: An existing AI integration with German-based Radiozeit / RadioTranscript has demonstrated technical compatibility and live usage within the European market.

• Compliance-first design: The platform is designed to support GDPR- and ePrivacy-aware consent capture, proof-of-consent logging, unsubscribe and data erasure workflows, and optional EU data residency configurations.

• Carrier-grade expertise: Text Groove already operates at scale in fragmented, multi-carrier ecosystems—an architecture well suited to Europe's diverse A2P SMS landscape.

"Our goal is to be a long-term, trusted participant in Europe's media and communications ecosystem" added Machek. "We're entering this market clear about what we bring to the table and thoughtful about how we can work alongside European partners to support their goals".

Text Groove welcomes conversations with media organisations, distribution partners, and communications providers interested in collaboration and modernizing audience engagement infrastructure.
