Beam launched on January 5, 2016. In May 2016, Beam won the Startup Battlefield competition at the TechCrunch Disrupt conference, receiving $50,000 in equity-free funding.[2][3]
On August 11, 2016, Beam was acquired by Microsoft for an undisclosed amount. The service's team was integrated into the Xbox division.[4] On October 26, 2016, Microsoft announced that Beam would be integrated into Windows 10.[5] Beam broadcasting was also integrated into Xbox One on the March 2017 software update.[6]
On May 25, 2017, Microsoft announced that Beam had been renamed Mixer, as the previous name could not be used globally.[7] The re-branding came alongside the introduction of several new features, such as the ability for a user to co-host up to three other streams on their channel at once, as well as the companion mobile app Mixer Create. It was also announced that Mixer would receive top-level integration within the Xbox One dashboard, with a new tab curating Mixer streams.[8] Mixer founders Boehm and Salsamendi have left Mixer. Boehm announced his departure from Mixer on October 2, 2019, and Salsamendi announced that he was leaving on October 10, 2019.[9]
