The company will demonstrate its combined FUEL+Powr.tv turnkey digital platform that simplifies video management, deployment, and distribution.
NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., April 11, 2022 – Bitcentral Inc., the provider of award-winning efficient media workflows for broadcast and digital video, will be demonstrating its latest innovations in delivering the future of storytelling at the NAB Show 2022 (Las Vegas Convention Center, April 23 – 27, booth W5100).

The platform enables a ‘manage once, distribute many’ approach via a modular and flexible system; enhances viewer engagement with real-time live chat & watch party functionality; enables broadcast-quality live streaming and dynamic linear channels; offers a rapid go-to-market foundation with best-of-breed CTV, mobile and web app solutions; and supports flexible monetization models, including AVOD, SVOD, TVOD and syndication/FAST channel distribution.
VideoElephant, one of the largest global video aggregators will be at the Bitcentral booth to highlight how FUEL+Powr.tv is powering and distributing its growing 150+ FAST channels.
