Motion picture communication from a single source is now possible, thanks to the strategic partnership of the online-video production firm infotainweb and stream5, one of the leading online-video technology suppliers. For businesses and customers within the media industry, this means having a single contact person for all services, ranging from consultation, editing and production, implementation of video players, content-management systems and streaming right up to web syndication. The partnership has already undertaken a first joint venture: the live broadcast of an interview with Steve Ballmer, CEO of Microsoft, on the new operating system Windows 7.
The 20-minute appearance of the Microsoft boss was streamed live on msn.de and bild.de. Responsibility for planning and production lay with infotainweb, while stream5 was in charge of the live-stream and the implementation of the chat platform.
"We have learnt that customers often want everything from a single source, from production to online-video technology," said Stefan Huber, head of marketing and sales at infotainweb. The Munich-based firms complement each other in their respective motion picture communication activities. infotainweb takes on the role of producer and consultant for all matters concerning Internet-TV, while stream5 contributes its online-video technology. As one of the leading suppliers in Europe, the firm can draw on its online-video products, which have received numerous awards, for this purpose. "infotainweb is an ideal partner who provides a perfect complement to our range of services. This means that we are now able to develop even better online-video packages, which is particularly interesting for brand name firms and media outlets," said Christoph Hölzlwimmer, CEO of stream5.
In the future, the cooperation will also extend to sales and marketing activities. Stefan Huber: "Together we can strengthen our market image and profit from each other. stream5 is a first-class partner."
