Elgato Rebrands as Eve Systems to Focus on HomeKit Products, Sells Streaming Accessory Division

Elgato Systems announced today that it's rebranding as Eve Systems to focus on making Apple HomeKit products.

Elgato Systems, a leading manufacturer of app-enabled lifestyle accessories, today announced it will shift its focus exclusively to Eve, its successful smart home product line. To reflect that it will change its name to Eve Systems. Elgato Gaming, the company's streaming accessory division, will be sold to leading gaming peripherals maker Corsair and continue as a separate brand.

“Today, the Gaming space is more dynamic and exciting than ever, and we sought a larger partner to help us capitalize on the phenomenal opportunities ahead” said Markus Fest, Elgato’s founder and now CEO of Eve Systems. “Our gaming business has been wildly successful, and that success is inextricably linked to the Elgato brand. The brand has been with us for almost twenty years and we are obviously a little sad to see it go, but Corsair is a fantastic company and will be a great new home for Elgato. At the same time our Eve product line will benefit from a focused team and a dedicated organization. This move will further strengthen both product families.”

Eve says it will exhibit at IFA Berlin this year and will introduce several new products (August 31 to September 05, hall 6.2 / booth 104).
