BrightSign and Walls.io in social media drive

Digital signage media players provider BrightSign has joined forces with social media content hub specialist Walls.io on a new initiative to develop and build social media walls.

The partnership will enable content managers in retail, live events, education, hospitality and corporate environments to collect and curate user-generated content across multiple social platforms on to a digital signage display, powered by BrightSign players.

Walls created with Walls.io’s technology are already used to display social media content during NBA basketball games, Google technology conferences and in showrooms by leading brands such as Prada.

“BrightSign is a leader in content management and partner networks, with an impressive hardware portfolio of reliable players which spans the entire market from high performance, top-end installations to simple entry-level solutions,” Walls.io chief executive Michael Kamleitner says.

User-generated content is the future for digital signage

“We are particularly impressed with BrightSign’s support for large installations, which will be popular with our events and tradeshow customers in the coming months.”

Jeff Hastings, chief executive of BrightSign, adds: “This new integration significantly widens the options for our customers who seek new ways to engage with their audiences and encourage them to share their own content.

“User-generated content is the future for digital signage, and with Walls.io, BrightSign is at the forefront of this trend.”
