The Chamber has formed a strategic alliance with Chamber member Octopus Media Technology, the award winning, leading edge content management and delivery platform.
Via OctopusMT's powerful technology coverage of Chamber events as well as other videos of interest will be made available on line - including on www.canada-uk.org - and on other digital devices. There will also be opportunities for advertisers and members to showcase their products and services.
Nigel Bacon, Executive Director, Canada-UK Chamber of Commerce said ‘We are very excited the opportunities now open to the Chamber and our Members as a result of our strategic partnership with Octopus Media Technology. OctopusMT has already arranged the coverage of a number of events in April and provided a powerful promotional platform for the Chamber and our Members. As well as coverage of our events, one of the exciting projects is that through the OctopusMT platform people will be able to upload their messages of support for athletes taking part in major sporting events around the world including the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics. We look forward to our Members benefiting from this.’
Andrew Eborn, founder and president of OctopusMT, said: ‘I am delighted we have formed this strategic alliance with the Canada-UK Chamber of Commerce. Using OctopusMT’s leading edge technology the Chamber will enable coverage of their events and other video content to be enjoyed by a wider audience around the world in new and exciting ways. Work has already commenced and several exciting projects are planned. I very much look forward to a long and successful working relationship.’
