Has IM considered a whisper room?

Just a thought!

BRING BACK VIC STEEL?

Is the era of buffoonery over? I doubt it

[bonio10000] 11/9/2018 17:53

I'd have thought IM would have sorted out a full schedule of meetings in advance. But what would I know.

[nickb] 11/9/2018 17:46

The company feels better run these days more professional and the technology is WOW of course.

IM comment in LinkedIn:
"For anyone attending IBC this week who would like to meet up. We will be showcasing Blackbird on Microsoft’s stand. We have (amongst other things) a groundbreaking workflow that edits live all long form games for a MAJOR US sport and publishes it digitally for European consumption - all using Microsoft Azure. DM me to book a slot and find out more. hashtag#infrastructure hashtag#cloudcomputing hashtag#sports hashtag#ibc hashtag#localization hashtag#microsoftazure"

It’s only interims so the numbers will be small.

CEO statement possibly an enthusiastic one would be lovely 😊

[geheimnis2] 11/9/2018 17:36

has the share price EVER risen on results day?

there is always a first time i suppose and i actually believe this could be it...but i have thought that many times before...

[nickb] 11/9/2018 17:24

One of the nice things about results day is that you can stay in bed late into the day ⏰-10:00AM

[nickb] 11/9/2018 17:19

Paul
That would be a great opportunity then😀㉀0;

[bonio10000] 11/9/2018 16:36

If they announced three large contracts tomorrow I'd want a formal investigation into the placing.

[paulcon1] 11/9/2018 16:34

Not noticed by the market - 0.0575p

😁 😁 😁

[chriscallen] 11/9/2018 16:29

If they announce 3 big contracts tomorrow taking turnover to £10M what do you think the share price would be?

[nickb] 11/9/2018 14:37

Less than 2hours left to sell before the results!

Or buy of course

[bonio10000] 11/9/2018 14:19

Well - little buying (i.e. none) out of the US.

[paulcon1] 11/9/2018 13:35

It feels to me that there are some @blackbird upgrades and developments (as per CEO interview) to be announced prior/or at IBC 2018 and that Microsoft Azure and FBT have partnered/renegotiated to offer the upgraded tech to their customers.

And to be subsequently 'premièred' at IBC...

The extent of the product additions should be interesting plus you would imagine an increase in potential revenue.

If this has been pointed out previously... Apologies

IMHO

I think the new U.S deal is NHL.

[bonio10000] 11/9/2018 09:43

I assumed that was the new USA deal?

I knew we did Game Pass.

If it is a different sport - we have bagged two of the top 4 sports over there.

Which makes the lack of revenue traction still a disappointment.

[cabi1] 11/9/2018 09:42

Bonio. It’s Bruin Capital/Deltatre with NFL - Game Pass.

[paulcon1] 11/9/2018 09:40

Bonio

That's a great contract... If interpreted correctly a Deltatre tie up... On going deal, hopefully with increasing revenues and exposure.

Get your posting thumb ready, next couple of days may get messy!

GL and IMHO

[chriscallen] 11/9/2018 09:39

Are they waiting to sign the deal and announce it at IBC?

[bonio10000] 11/9/2018 09:28

How that isn't a deal to bring in at least £70k p.a. I have no idea.

We must be giving this away.

[bonio10000] 11/9/2018 09:28

"Also part of the deal: More Snapchat Live Stories for NFL games. Last year, Snapchat created Live Stories — collections of snaps from fans and league employees around a specific event — for close to 50 NFL games. This year, Snapchat will have a Live Story for all 256 regular-season games on the NFL schedule, plus the playoffs."

Boom.

So we snagged the big one.

[bonio10000] 11/9/2018 09:27

Right - so who has rights for 256 US games?

A good position at IBC with Microsoft better quality of senior traffic
