Maven Connect to Extend Value for Event Delegates, Speakers,
and Sponsors by Hosting Fully Interactive Community and
Collaboration Platform
REDWOOD CITY, Calif. and LONDON, Jan. 17, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
BroadVision, Inc. (Nasdaq:BVSN), a global leader in social business
solutions, today announced that Digital London, a live and digital
summit and showcase connecting digital innovation, technology, and
creativity, will use BroadVision's Clearvale(TM) enterprise social
networking solution to underpin and facilitate engagement throughout
the entire event lifecycle. Digital London, to be held March 13-14,
2012 at the International Convention Centre, ExCeL in London, is
organized by Maven Cast and supported by the Mayor of London, Boris
Johnson.
Maven Connect, powered by Clearvale, will connect delegates, speakers,
exhibitors, and sponsors associated with the event in a single
collaborative platform for Digital London. Maven Connect will bring
together constituents prior to the physical event to facilitate the
sharing of digital assets, advice, and collateral. Designed to foster
engagement, Maven Connect will provide a forum for discussion and
guidance to complement event topics, and also unite all parties after
the event to help shape future agendas.
"With our ongoing partnership with BroadVision, we are excited to
leverage Clearvale to establish communities and underpin the process
through the entire lifecycle for all Maven Cast events," said Adam
Malik, CEO and Founder of Maven Cast. "At Digital London, event
delegates will benefit from increased value by having a single platform
of engagement prior to, during, and after the event so relationships
can build and continue post event."
Using social tools and techniques, BroadVision helps businesses around
the globe effectively transform the way they work. BroadVision's
Clearvale is a cloud-based enterprise social networking solution
leveraging the latest in enterprise 2.0 technology and practices
helping businesses engage with employees, customers, and partners.
"Maven Cast is pioneering events 2.0. Before social business solutions,
physical events were just a place to come together for a few days.
There was no legacy and each event required a new website to be
created," said Ian Heggs, EMEA Director Business Operations at
BroadVision. "Now with Clearvale, events like Digital London can
transform from one-way monologues of speakers presenting to delegates
to on-going conversations between event organizers, sponsors, speakers,
and delegates."
Industry innovators, entrepreneurs, solution providers, business
leaders, executives, and investors will gather at Digital London to
discuss digital innovations and enabling technologies, explore
opportunities in the digital ecosystem and inspire digitally connected
smart cities. For more information, please visit
