Astra Industry Days

• We were thrilled to be invited to present at the SES Astra Industry Days conference held last week, over two days, at their Luxembourg headquarters.

  Having worked with Astra to deliver our award winning content discovery TV app we were keen to share our thinking behind our cross platform service and the inventive use of TV recommendation technology combined with Facebook integration to Astra’s delegates.

  The conference was hosted by Astra at their Betzdorf Chateau headquarters with over 160+ delegates attending from the satellite and broadcast industry.

  As well as demonstrating our application on a Samsung TV, we were also given the opportunity to speak alongside Neill Henderson, Web Manager for Astra and Tom Weiss, CEO of TV Genius on ‘how web and apps make TV better!’ (We believe our application certainly supports this theory). Neill spoke of how Astra are improving content discovery with applications such as the Capablue Samsung application.

  Our presentation and demonstration were well received and combined with an evening spent at the Top Floor restaurant at the Sofitel with stunning views over Luxembourg, it made for a great event.
