OOONA, a global provider of professional management and production tools for the media localization industry, announced today that it has formed a technology partnership with PBT EU. The latter specializes in the broadcast and media market with a host of hardware and software product solutions for broadcast playout and localization services.
The two companies acknowledge the complementary nature of their solutions for the media localization market and will now be offering some of each other’s products. OOONA’s suite of web-based Tools for subtitling and captioning will be integrated in PBT EU’s NEXT-TT management platform and SubtitleNEXT Live, a state-of-the-art desktop software for the creation and delivery of live subtitles and captions, will be made available to OOONA’s customers.
“We can achieve so much more when working together,” says Ivanka Vassileva, PBT EU CEO and Managing Partner. “OOONA have developed an impressive web-based toolkit that we will be integrating in our NEXT-TT platform, so we can offer secure web-based options to our customers for every media localization need they might have.”
“Our clients have been looking for ways to handle their live subtitling work and PBT EU have a great solution,” adds Wayne Garb, OOONA co-founder and CEO. “Rather than reinventing the wheel, it made more sense for us to collaborate.”
