Syniverse Mobile Video Broadcast Service receives Innovation Award
TAMPA, Fla. – June 27, 2011 – Judges of the inaugural Asia Communication Awards presented Syniverse with the prestigious Innovation Award in Singapore on Wednesday, June 22, recognizing the groundbreaking Syniverse Mobile Video Broadcast Service, which enables live streaming video delivery across disparate 3G and 4G networks, mobile devices, and PCs.
This Syniverse technology makes mobile video communications work by allowing any mobile user on any network around the globe the ability to receive a live video stream initiated by the mobile device of the “home” network subscriber – without requiring any new technology, software or application on the receiving mobile handset or PC. This unique, cross-platform video tool evolved from Syniverse’s heritage of bridging network, platform and device islands around the world for SMS and then MMS. Syniverse experts developed the very first camera phone and sent the industry’s first picture message.
“In bringing interoperability to video, the Mobile Video Broadcast Service solves one of the fundamental issues facing the uptake of video communications – the lack of ubiquity,” said Charles Landry, Senior Vice President, Global Messaging, Syniverse. “Syniverse is helping to ensure operators around the world can take advantage of the important revenue potential that video provides, and that consumers can embrace the new era of mobile.”
The Asia Communication Awards is the sister award program to the highly respected World Communication Awards, owned by Terrapinn Holdings, Ltd. The judging panel features experienced operator representatives, analysts and consultants from across Asia as well as senior members of the “Total Telecom” editorial team.
The Innovation Award goes to the organization that has shown the greatest innovation in developing a technology used or able to be used in delivering or receiving communications. The award recognizes the development of a technology with potential for far reaching effect on business or consumer markets.
