World Television webcasts now available on Bloomberg

PRLog (Press Release) - Jun 23, 2009 -
Effective immediately, World Television’s clients have the option of streaming live company announcements on the BLOOMBERG PROFESSIONAL® service.

The BLOOMBERG PROFESSIONAL® service delivers instantaneous data, market prices, charting, searchable documents, workflow utilities and critical news combined with customisable analytics, communication trading and order management tools in an integrated platform to professionals around the world.

As Europe’s largest corporate webcaster, World Television produces and distributes thousands of live video streams per year for its 450-plus clients, many of them major companies listed on European stock exchanges, on a wide range of financial topics – including annual and quarterly results, shareholder meetings, capital markets days and major product launches.

Webcasts from World Television will be made available to users of the BLOOMBERG PROFESSIONAL® service via the function LIVE . The Bloomberg LIVE  service broadcasts a choice of multiple live news events simultaneously to customers worldwide. These include corporate earnings events, economic announcements, legislative and judicial hearings, industry seminars and interviews. So in addition to delivering their webcasts over the Internet or via their own corporate intranet sites, World Television’s clients will also have access to a high-profile audience of analysts, investors and decision makers who use the BLOOMBERG PROFESSIONAL® service.

“Bloomberg enables our clients to reach a high quality investor audience,” commented Steve Garvey, Chairman and CEO of World Television. “Webcasting has come of age as an essential investor relations tool and the financial community recognises it as the best way of getting major announcements directly from the source. With Bloomberg, we can now make it even easier for investors to access the video content they need.”
