NAB, LAS VEGAS, Nevada, April 24, 2017
Partnership makes quality expert directory available through Dejero’s LIVE+ Control management system
Dejero, an innovator in cloud-managed
solutions that simplify the transport of live video and real-time data across remote or mobile
IP networks, has forged a partnership with ExpertFile, a global search engine and content
platform for experts. The powerful new media collaboration now makes it easier than ever to
find expert viewpoints and sources, saving broadcast reporters and editors valuable time in
the newsroom.
With a focus on improving the search for credible, reliable voices and content in the
newsgathering process, ExpertFile is a unique international resource for identifying subject
matter experts and emerging story ideas on some of today’s most pressing topics. Dejero
provides a video acquisition and management platform to reliably transport and share video
from newsgathering crews and solo reporters in the field. Through the new partnership,
ExpertFile’s directory of expert contacts covering over 25,000 unique topics is now
immediately accessible inside Dejero’s LIVE+ Control management system from a web
browser within the newsroom or in the field.
Those experts who already use Dejero equipment or software can be connected directly to
the news organization, making it simple to bring together reporter and expert, wherever they
are in the world.
This partnership with ExpertFile reinforces Dejero’s strategy of collaborating with otherinnovative organizations to create best-of-breed, cutting edge solutions for our customers, commented Bogdan Frusina, founder of Dejero. This integration takes away a level of complication for the assignment editor, keeping more functionality within a common, simple and convenient user interface. It saves time and reduces the pressure of finding credible experts.
We’re seeing an exponential increase in the amount of video created and used by local and national news outlets around the world. In this era of fake news, there has never been a more critical need in broadcast news for credible sources, said Peter Evans, founder and CEO of ExpertFile.
