Global media and marketing company Crowd Media Holdings Ltd (ASX: CM8) is planning to join hands with London-based technology company Forever Holdings Ltd (FHL) to form commercial digital media partnership.
In an update provided on 09 January 2020, Crowd announced that it has executed a Letter of Intent (LOI) with FHL. FHL is a voice-and-visual Interactive digital media company which has significant strength in voice-and-visual Interactive digital media space and its work is beyond proof-of-concept, with existing applications across multiple platforms including mobile and life-size installations, with new work also being developed in VR.
Next Frontier of Digital Content and Delivery
At the recently held Annual General Meeting the Company’s Chairman, Steven Schapera had highlighted the company’s plan of developing ‘voice-and-visual’ products as the next frontier of digital content and delivery. This LOI is a major step towards that plan.
Under the LOI, both the parties will work together to form a ‘voice and-visual’ interactive digital media product for a range of sectors including influencer marketing, customer service, healthcare and education.
Further, this partnership will allow Crowd to leverage its core strengths of Q&A chatbot technology, delivery of digital content via subscription, digital social media and influencer marketing combining with FHL’s significant strength in the voice-and-visual interactive digital media sector.
If things went as per plan, this partnership will be a major step towards the company’s new vision of being a tech-based, vertically integrated social commerce business selling exemplary products and services that are integral to the lives of its customers.
With some amazing tech (and know-how) in the Q&A, telco payments, and Subscriptions space, Crowd Media has already established itself as a pioneer in influencer and social media marketing.
