NEW YORK, Nov. 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, participating companies in the Verizon Ventures Media Tech Venture Studio with R/GA will present to an audience of media and technology industry professionals at a demo day event in R/GA's connected global headquarters, located in New York City. Concluding the four-month program, the eight companies will take to the stage to present updates and pitch industry leaders, investors, and press in the media tech space.
Verizon Ventures worked closely with R/GA to carefully choose companies based on product innovations that aligned specifically with Verizon's strategic objectives. The eight companies represent the future of media and content across video creation and consumption, data analytics, esports, commerce, video delivery performance, machine learning, and personalization.
"We launched the Verizon Media Tech Venture Studio with R/GA to help shape the next generation of digital media solutions," said Paul Heitlinger, Verizon Ventures. "The participating companies were able to engage with key decision makers across Verizon and R/GA's business units who were exposed to new innovations that will change the future of media. We are excited to work with these companies as they continue to grow and make an impact in our industry."
Over the course of the program, each participating company had the opportunity to work with Verizon Ventures and Verizon's digital media businesses on product and technology projects. The program also offered access, resources, and support from R/GA's award-winning strategic marketing, consulting, branding, design, and technology teams. Participants in the Venture Studio were able to leverage Verizon's and R/GA's networks of investors, mentors, and global brand leaders from Fortune 100 consumer, enterprise, and technology companies.
The companies include:
The program took place at the Alley powered by Verizon, a co-working space in New York City's Flatiron District. The workspace enabled the companies to directly interact with product leaders from Oath, Go90, VDMS, FioS, Verizon Open Innovation and Verizon Wireless.
