Vewd creates common TV app ecosystem

October 12, 2017 11.01 Europe/London By Julian Clover

Ten leading digital design agencies have agreed to support the Vewd ecosystem around the TV app market.

Accedo, Cisco, Easel TV, Floatleft Interactive, Fractal Media, Massive, Tradecast, TV App Agency, Wizitivi, and 24i have completed the Vewd Certify process. Its been designed to reduce the fragmentation and complexity within the TV app market.

“The TV App agencies are the backbone of our industry. Working with these leading agencies to unify their development efforts around the Vewd Core ecosystem allows for significantly lower OPEX and quicker time-to-market for all ecosystem partners” says Daniel Nordberg, SVP of Partnerships, Vewd. “At Vewd, we work hard to simply complexity and reduce fragmentation, ensuring that our partners can focus on what they do best – making compelling experiences on connected TV devices.”

Vewd Core is the most deployed HTML5 platform for smart TVs and set-top boxes with nearly 50 million units shipped each year, while there are more than 1,500 Vewd-enabled apps and two million indexed videos.

“Having our award-winning professional services group work with Vewd gives us instant access to a very wide ecosystem with consistency in how our customers’ video services perform across devices,” says Michael Lantz, CEO, Accedo. “We’re especially excited to have our Accedo One application platform certified for Vewd, which will allow effortless and immediate scalability for our customers.”

Opera TV rebranded as Vewd at IBC 2017.
