Today at Mipcom we can announce the launch of the single video upload facility (here). Starting today content owners will be able to upload their content, a single video at a time, to the Babelgum platform by using the publishing service. Multiple uploads for entire content libraries will be available from October 29th. Here’s the press release that has just been released in Cannes.

Valerio Zingarelli, CEO of Babelgum,explains that the Babelgum Video Publisher empowers content owners. He says:

“This direct upload facility is designed with the needs of the many independent small-medium sized professional producers in mind. It provides them with a global platform to showcase their work which may not be suited for traditional TV broadcast schedules due to length, format or genre.”

Assia Grazioli-Venier, Head of Ministry of Sound TV, adds:

“I have been hungry for a way to have control over how and when our content is distributed and targeted. This is an extremely useful facility that keeps our content fresh for consumers which can only benefit Ministry of Sound and Babelgum.”
