TVN will take advantage of Video Cloud's scalability and proven
functionality to deliver broadcast-quality video via desktops and mobile
devices
BOSTON & WARSAW, Poland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Brightcove (NASDAQ: BCOV), a leading global provider of cloud services
for video, and TVN, a leading commercial, free-to-air television network
in Poland, announced today that TVN has selected the Brightcove Video
Cloud online video platform to manage and distribute TVN's wide range of
advertising-supported news and entertainment video content across
desktops and mobile devices.
Maciej Maciejowski, member of the management board in charge of new
business development for TVN said: "We are committed to providing our
audience with the highest-quality video experiences possible on the
device of their choice. Brightcove's solutions for delivering premium
video content across multiple platforms with support for advertising and
social sharing will strongly support the success of our video
initiatives in the future."
TVN will rely on Video Cloud to manage and deliver a broad range of
short-form content. With Video Cloud, TVN also has the ability to create
content that is accessible across HTML and Flash-based devices. This
means that the TVN viewing experience is reliable and consistent across
all devices. Additionally, by taking advantage of Video Cloud's ability
to fully integrate with leading advertising networks and servers, TVN is
able to deliver a much richer, more interactive advertising experience.
TVN will also rely on Video Cloud for the re-launch of its X-Link
service, a business-to-business portal through which TVN syndicates
short-form video content. With this initiative, TVN empowers businesses
to deliver exciting, high-quality content through a professional-grade
video player.
Luke Gaydon, vice president of media, EMEA, at Brightcove said:
"Innovative broadcasters like TVN are constantly seeking out new
opportunities afforded by the multi-screen viewing trend. We look
forward to growing our partnership with TVN as they continue to innovate
around online video and provide viewers with access to around-the-clock
video content on the platform and device of their choosing."
