We wanted a way for organizations of all kinds to stand out in the midst of the digital noise," says Roland S. Martin. "The benefits of this partnership will include live streaming through Facebook, Youtube, Periscope, Twitch, and Instagram TV (IGTV); custom branding & layouts; audience engagement (Chat, Polling, Q&A); recorded sessions; and reporting & analytics."
