Get Smart: LiveNinja Partners with The Next Web to Build a Webinar Platform for TNW Academy’s Live Online Classes
Miami, FL (PRWEB) July 31, 2013 -- LiveNinja, a real-time video chat marketplace where users can market and monetize expert skills, today announced a partnership to provide a custom webinar platform for The Next Web’s TNW Academy, an online school that offers courses from experts in many popular topics from Social Media to SEO.
The Next Web, a leading world tech blog with over 6 million unique monthly visitors, launched the TNW Academy in 2012 to offer online classes from leading web professionals at affordable prices. Anyone regardless of location will now have the opportunity to learn directly from leading tech professionals like Ross Crooks, Co-Founder and COO of Column Five Media; John Saddington, Co-Founder of 8bit and the creator of Pressgram; and Clay Hebert, creator of KickstarterHacks among many others.
TNW Academy’s custom-built webinar service, created and powered by LiveNinja, will feature high quality video/audio chat, multiple moderator support, and real-time video and screen sharing all within a sleek, intuitive and modern user interface. This new platform is completely browser-based and will not require the download of any additional software or plugins, unlike current webinar providers such as WebEX or GoToMeeting.
“We are incredibly proud to partner with a world class online publication like The Next Web,” said Will Weinraub, CEO and co-founder of LiveNinja. “TNW Academy is pushing forward on its mission to democratize education and connect people to world class experts throughout the world, and we at LiveNinja could not be more aligned with that ethos. We are extremely excited to be partnering up with them to help achieve those goals.”
“I first met Will a few years ago as a judge at SuperConf, when he pitched LiveNinja and won,” says Brad McCarty, Director of TNW Academy. “I saw great potential in this startup back then, and once again I am blown away by the quality of the LiveNinja platform. Their team has built a seriously slick product that is going to maximize the TNW Academy experience.”
LiveNinja will soon make this webinar technology available to their users as well, so each expert can monetize their knowledge and expertise on a much larger scale.
