MUMBAI: VideoTap Digital, the media technology company, promoted by media veteran Dilip Venkatraman, former CEO of CNN-IBN and IBN7 and Savvy Dilip, former Group CMO of ITV Network, is all set to showcase VideoTap, the next generation video platform at 4YFN - Mobile World Congress at Barcelona. VideoTap is a highly innovative, cloud based Interactive Smart Video platform, powered by proprietary patent pending technology, that is all set to transform the way video content is delivered, viewed and monetised.
Consumers want video on demand, but many times they want to watch only a specific segment within a video, and not the full video. They also want to watch many such specific segments one after the other, continuously, for a personalized experience. They do not want to waste time to search from many videos. Addressing this gap VideoTap offers consumers personalized real time video compilations, interactivity on videos, and direct-to-scene watching.
Commenting on this VideoTap founder and CEO Dilip Venkatraman said: “VideoTap is an original concept and is fundamentally differentiated from existing offerings in the world. Our highly motivated and innovative in-house technology team has built this platform from scratch. We are very excited about showcasing VideoTap at a global platform.”
VideoTap co-founder and COO Savvy Dilip adds: “Consumers want more control over their viewing experience, and we have built an entire ecosystem to deliver an unparalleled user experience. We are excited about working with video publishers, especially broadcasters and production houses, to unlock the value of their content libraries.”
