Fincons for Media

Season's Greetings from our #Media team! 🎄✨🎄✨ We wish you a pleasant and joyful holiday season with your loved ones. We look forward to catching up in the new year and sharing new exciting insights into the innovations shaping our industry.

The MOSAIC project, an EU-funded initiative coordinated by Fincons Group, has officially kicked off at Fincons' Future Gateway! Read the news ➡️ https://lnkd.in/e5Ey3hYd Over 18 months, MOSAIC will develop an AI-driven hub for multilingual and multimodal media content, revolutionizing how Europe’s rich media archives are adapted and shared across languages and cultures. With tools such as multilingual translation, automatic subtitling, and AI-driven content adaptation, the project aims to break down language barriers, boost accessibility, and foster inclusivity—building a united European media market while preserving cultural heritage. Together with other outstanding international partners like Sky Italia, we'll work tackle fragmentation in Europe’s media landscape, fostering core European values: inclusivity, privacy, ethical AI, and cultural diversity empowering citizens and reshaping global media experiences. #Innovation #AI #Media #EUProjects #Inclusion #Mosaicproject #FinconsGroup #SkyItalia

Despite the shift in audiovisual content consumption to different platforms and the constantly evolving technology, #TV continues to be a key source of video consumption. On the anniversary of #WorldTelevisionDay2024, we've celebrated the growing impact of TV in keeping society informed. We are proud to be part of the television ecosystem, working every day to support the technological innovation of this communication channel. From the first prototypes in the 1920s to today, television has steadily evolved, making content more inclusive and promoting education, social change, and global connection.

Today the #HbbTVSymposium opened in London and we could not miss this important international event that brings together more than 250 players in the #connectedTV industry to share the latest developments and achievements. Paolo Ferrara took the stage to present together with Mediaset the evolutionary path of #DVB-I leveraging #HbbTV. A virtuous journey to bring innovation and prepare the market for the DVB-I standard.

Don't miss the video clip of Francesco Moretti's speech in New York during the Candid Conversation Breakfast event organized by Matrix Solutions on the use of #AI technologies to enhance the management of #advertising operations. It was a great opportunity to meet leading #Media executives in person and present #ADVisor, a solution recently developed in collaboration with Mediaset, which was awarded the NAB Product of the Year 2024. Our modern product fully leverages the potential of Video AI technologies to optimize and automate broadcasters' editorial processes.

What a real pleasure to take part at the “Reinventing the Media Supply Chain” event organized by our partners SDVI Corporation and Amazon Web Services (AWS) at the Sky Italia headquarters in Milan. Alberto Niero and Luca Cisoni joined the stage for the panel “Making the Move to Cloud-based Media Supply Chains” to share our significant experience in leading the migration of the #contentsupplychain to the #cloud for major international #broadcasters through real-world success stories. It was also a fantastic opportunity to provide the audience with thought-provoking insights into the benefits of this transition and perspectives on the possible evolutions made possible by the cloud. An heartfelt thank you to Geoff Stedman and Nick Couck for getting us involved in this event!
