Next gen multiscreen wins Content Innovation Award
At IBC 2017, multiscreen and TV Everywhere were some of the most talked about topics, although the industry is still looking for ways to address the fast evolving consumer demand for content everywhere, at all times and on all platforms.
Since then, it’s become increasingly clear that we are entering a new era of multiscreen that blurs the lines between the operator’s content catalogue, the subscriber’s personal library and external User Generated Content hosted on social media and YouTube.
This is part of the reason we left the Content Innovation Awards ceremony on October 15 with ‘The Multiscreen Award’ – exactly one month after we brought home a CSI award for ‘Best TV Everywhere or multi-screen video’ for the deployment of ACCESS Twine™ for Reliance Jio Infocomm (Jio)’s Jio Lifestyle service.
Soon, even more devices will enter the multiscreen mix – from the connected car to IoT enabled screens – and operators need to get ready for this evolution. Our two awards confirm that there is more to multiscreen than simply enabling media sharing between devices. As we prepare for a more integrated future, we are proud to show the way to the next stop in the multiscreen journey.
Yours truly,
Dr Neale Foster, Managing Director and COO, ACCESS Europe
