LiveScreen(TM) Media to Manage New Mobile Application in China
LONDON, August 7 /EMWNews/ -- Celltick today announced the launch of
a new and unique mobile media service over China Unicom's network, starting
with the 2008 Olympic Games. Designed and implemented as a managed service
through Celltick's LiveScreen(TM) Media platform, the new service provides
official Olympics-related content directly from Xinhua News, the official
news agency in China, including the latest news, results and anecdotes and
accompanied by topical games and applications. The service will also
include content relating to news, lifestyle, fun, business and
entertainment.
With LiveScreen(TM) Media mobile operators can non-intrusively deliver
segmented content, rich media and advertising to a virtually unlimited
number of users. Unlocking a new revenue source via targeted teasers
delivered to the idle screen, LiveScreen(TM) Media rapidly and easily
expands the offering of operators, helping them make the most of today's
burgeoning mobile marketing opportunities.
Celltick's LiveScreen(TM) Media application will be embedded on SIM
cards that are being distributed in China Unicom retail outlets around
Beijing. The service will be available in both Chinese and English.
Stephen Dunford, CEO of Celltick, comments: "The Olympic Games
represents an enormous opportunity for the mobile industry and our managed
LiveScreen(TM) Media application is ideally positioned to help China Unicom
capitalise on its full potential.
"We are very pleased to be working with China Unicom with their wide
reach and significant customer base, both of which will help strengthen our
presence across China as we roll out further LiveScreen(TM) Media
deployments."
The launch of the LiveScreen(TM) Media service in Beijing will be the
first in a series of LiveScreen(TM) deployments across China.
