New technologies, including artificial intelligence, present both enormous opportunities and formidable difficulties in the dynamic media landscape of today. Here, the creative media solutions of flourishing scale-ups or growth firms are vital: within STADIEM’s acceleration programme, 16 scale-ups from Open Call 2 have now graduated into the Develop phase, to co-develop, with corporate partners, answers to such challenges.
In this stage of the programme, running until January 2023, they will team up with international media organisations - including Roularta Media Group, VRT, BNNVARA, RBB, t-online, Havas Health & You, among several others – working together on topics like Data/AI/ML/Synthetic Media (Dcipher Analytics, Limecraft, Scriptix, einbliq.io, Media Distillery), Content creation & distribution (BotTalk, Wantent, Rumble Studio, IZI RECORD, Television.AI, doWow, Dramatify), Monetization (Druid Learning, Vialog, Levellr) and Content verification and against disinformation (Textgain).
- Together with Mediahuis NV – one of the largest publishers in the Benelux - Textgain will be working on implementing new features into their RHETHORIC tool, an AI-powered, innovative commenting pipeline that allows publishers to have a moderated, safe space on their own platform where readers can engage with their content, plus offering reporting functionalities for journalists on such content.
- Wantent (Ukraine) offers groundbreaking ML technology that allows to analyze audiences’ emotional reactions and engagement: it will be applied to a new long-form tv show developed by their match, Belgian broadcaster VRT, to validate and measure impact on users before the show is aired.
- Vialog (UK) provides embeddable video discussions for websites, products or events – to increase engagement, sign-ups or sales: they will work with Dutch broadcaster BNNVARA to engage and activate their readers and help journalists collect thematic contributions cheaper and faster than any other current alternative.
