Heirloom enables users to preserve print photos in a single tap, by transforming them into beautiful digital images. Heirloom automatically finds the edges of the photo, corrects the perspective and does a mild colour enhancement, without having to remove it from its album. Photos can then be shared in private groups within Heirloom or externally on social networks. In USA TODAY, Kim Komando cited Heirloom as one of “five apps that make you say ‘wow'” and Heirloom has attracted more than 95,000 users since its launch in USA on 17 November 2014.

“Over 2.5 billion people around the world own photographic prints. These are often stashed away and hard to share with others, despite the popularity of trends like “Throwback Thursday” (#tbt), and this deeper human desire to remember and share important moments with the people you love,” said Eric Owski, co-founder and CEO, Heirloom.
Heirloom’s proprietary, imaging software was created with Willi Geiger, who led computer graphics teams at Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) on major blockbuster films for thirteen years.

GRONINGEN, Netherlands, Jan. 13, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — Crowdynews, the social media curation platform for media companies, today announced that it has raised EUR2,5 million in funding.

Crowdynews plans to use the funds to continue its rapid global expansion with media and newspaper companies. Customers include the Chicago Tribune, Washington Times, AccuWeather and hundreds of other media outlets around the world.
“Crowdynews was inspired when the US Airways plane landed in the Hudson River,” said co-founder Edwin Kuipers. “Most of the breaking news was coming from social media posts. Crowdynews found a way to integrate social media into the news cycle, and media companies have loved the reader engagement plus the revenue sharing model that gives them new digital income. It’s been a dream come true.”
Crowdynews gathers social media posts, photos and videos from Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Vimeo and other channels to augment traditional reporting with social media and engage readers. The Crowdynews platform uses advanced technologies such as natural language processing and artificial intelligence to achieve over 90% relevancy rates in more than 25 languages. Crowdynews is the only social media curation platform that is both multi-lingual, globally scalable and pulls from a list of premium social media services.
“Crowdynews was one of the early products in social media curation, and is still the only one to pull from almost all social media channels,” said co-founder Jeroen Zanen. “This funding will allow us to continue our aggressive global expansion, improve operational excellence, and drive innovation. The combination of INKEF Capital’s international and business development experience and SPH’s extensive and long-standing background in media management and operations brings balanced guidance to our company, and we’re excited to work with our new supervisory board members.”

“We were looking to expand our investments in new media and software,” said Robert Jan Galema, managing director of INKEF Capital. “Crowdynews has a unique angle on the social media phenomena, and it was a logical choice for our next step in technology investing. We are happy to work with the team as they take their solutions to new global markets.”

– Speed, quality, cost, and flexibility will be critical as focus shifts from delivery to monetization, finds Frost & Sullivan
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Jan. 8, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — Fierce competition and consumer pressure is giving a boost to over-the-top (OTT) content volumes, intensifying the demand for video transcoders globally. With media and entertainment companies looking to deliver OTT multiscreen offerings at par with traditional primary screen content, both in terms of volume and quality of experience, they are investing significantly in digital content workflows and multi-screen transcoders. As industry focus shifts from delivery to monetization, product differentiation will hinge on speed, quality, density, operating cost, flexibility and future-proof architectures.
New analysis from Frost & Sullivan, Global Media and Entertainment Video Transcoder Market, finds that the market earned revenues of $270.0 million in 2013 and estimates this to reach $959.8 million by 2020. While adoption of on-premise products and solutions will continue, software- and platform-as-a-service for multi-screen workflows will gain faster traction due to their agility, scalability and convenience.

“Ensuring high-quality, glitch-free transcoding across multiple generations of encodes and transcodes remains a crucial problem to solve, making this a technologically-intensive market,” said Frost & Sullivan Digital Media Principal Analyst Avni Rambhia. “Managing scale and agility requirements in a cost-efficient manner is an added dimension of complexity that is driving upgrades and investments in the global media and entertainment video transcoder market.”
While uptake continues to increase, prices are decreasing due to commoditized silicon and, ironically, the rise in cloud-based models is limiting market growth. The inability to fully monetize online video content also affects profits, although niches such as live sports and catch-up TV are beginning to yield dividends in the form of subscription revenues and sold-out advertisement inventories. Over time, advances in high-definition, 4K, high efficiency video coding (HEVC), and the emergence of commercial solutions over home-grown systems will counteract these restraints.
The advancement of online video platforms and video origin servers in the traditional video transcoders market is another challenge. Companies are responding either through portfolio expansion or establishing strategic partnerships. Strong brands with massive distribution channels, but dated internal technology, are acquiring smaller companies with cutting edge technology and limited go-to-market resources.
“Operators are looking for video to become an ‘it just works’ solution as opposed to a technologically-intricate deployment requiring continuous oversight and enhancement,” concluded Rambhia. “Accordingly, video transcoder vendors need to position themselves as long-term outsourcing partners for operators, as opposed to the traditional strategy of differentiating purely on format support and compression efficiency.”
Global Media and Entertainment Video Transcoder Market is part of the Digital Media (http://www.digitalmedia.frost.com) Growth Partnership Service program. Frost & Sullivan’s related studies include: Global Pay TV Video Encoders Market, Global Pay TV Middleware Market, Global Web and Mobile Analytics Market, and Global Big Data Analytics Market.

– Wearable and consumer mHealth app proliferation will enable traction for mobile telehealth solutions
 |
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Oct. 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — The telehealth industry is on the verge of a dramatic growth surge significantly disrupting the healthcare sector in North America. With millions of new patients entering the U.S. healthcare system, owing to the Affordable Care Act, escalating demand coupled with the lack of easy access to health professionals will strengthen the market for telehealth services.
New analysis from Frost & Sullivan’s Pulse of Telehealth 2014 finds that the growing aging population needs to manage and monitor multiple chronic diseases, in turn intensifying the demand for remote patient monitoring as well as mobile telehealth. Telehealth videoconferencing, especially, will emerge as a suitable avenue for primary and specialty healthcare service delivery. The study is based on interviews conducted with key telehealth stakeholders in conjunction with discussions from the American Telemedicine Association (ATA) annual meeting.
For complimentary access to more information on this research, please visit: http://bit.ly/1oaKoJE
“The momentum for telehealth is building rapidly as the practice of providing remote clinical services becomes entrenched in every aspect of healthcare in North America,” said Frost & Sullivan Connected Health Principal Analyst Nancy Fabozzi. “Technological advancements that deliver rich, connected platforms with high visual and audio quality add to the business case for telehealth.”
Despite this incredible potential to transform healthcare, numerous barriers to adoption still exist. Lingering concerns about patient privacy and safety as well as insufficient public and private reimbursement policies curb the widespread uptake of telehealth.
In addition, users will have to face several “unknowns” in terms of complex state provider licensing and regulatory issues, affecting market growth. The use of telemedicine will gather pace only when leading industry stakeholders establish new guidelines and break down regulatory and reimbursement roadblocks.
“As the scope of telehealth expands, a number of technology and services vendors will make their entry into the market,” added Fabozzi. “Disease-specific vendors, in particular, will seek to capitalize on specialist shortages in critical areas such as mental health and neurology.”
An intensely competitive environment will drive innovation as leading technology vendors seek to capitalize on market opportunities:
Personal health tracking through wearables and consumer mHealth apps too will make inroads into the market, fuelling the mHealth segment and widening market reach.
Pulse of Telehealth 2014 is part of the Connected Health (http://www.connectedhealth.frost.com) Growth Partnership Service program. This research provides perspectives from industry experts in telehealth products and services on current and future trends in North America. The research also assesses the importance of different submarkets, industry trends, drivers and restraints.
