by Paul Joseph November 10, 2011 Featured

After a huge success with IIMA organized “Kings of Advertisements” where students from B-schools across India create video advertisements and compete for top spot, Infibeam today announced the start of “The Ad-vent” contest, making participation open for all, and not restricting participants. Aspiring artists may now make short advertisements using ideas & scripts provided by The Viral Fever, a young Creative Agency for Digital Marketing & Branded Entertainment. The participants may also come up with their own script. The winning entry will get telecast coverage on Television nationally and winning artist will receive cash prize. Commenting on the event, Mr. Manu Midha, VP, Infibeam.com said, “We are very glad to see the amazing response of the entries received from artists and look forward to some wonderful piece of work from one and all”. “In the age of YouTube, when every consumer can act as a creator, there is nothing better than to open our eyes to, consumers’ interpretation of our Brand Story. We are kicked to collaborate with infibeam, who like us, believe in such Creative Experiments. It doesn’t get better than this. The viewer becomes the creator!!” said, Mr. Arunabh Kumar, who calls himself the Creative Experiment Officer (CEO) at The Viral Fever. The thought behind reaching out to people for advertisements is to work with aspiring artists and provide a platform to have their creative work visible on national television. To date, the company has not done any mass media branding and this initiative is a huge bet to have work of aspiring artists showcase on mass media. Infibeam has always tried using such innovative ways of engaging with its customers and using technology for creating new opportunities. Recently, Infibeam was ranked amongst the top ecommerce sites in using social media to reach out to people. This sort of a ‘Campaign for a Campaign’ is a first by any Brand in any category in India. Participants can view the rules of the contest here – www.infibeam.com/static/advent.html and are required to send their entries to advent@infibeam.com by 25th of November 2011.

Hindi version of Android

by Paul Joseph August 12, 2011 Featured

Samsung and Google are planning to develop a Hindi version of Android operating system. Hindi version of Android? If this is true, this is probably the greatest positive thing that can happen to the mobile ecosystem in India. This is one area that even Microsoft has not tread. I used to longingly look at Korean / Chinese / Japanese versions of Windows and wonder when such things would be possible in India – Imagine how the PC adoption rate would increase with that. Microsoft did attempt something with XP & Vista but the results were disastrous . With all the hype about mobile-first internet market & so on, Android being available in Hindi (& other Indian languages) would be God-send. BG Mahesh would be the happiest man in this – he has been struggling with such issues for over a decade. With all the challenges with fonts & input mechanisms for Indian languages, it requires an organization like Google to really take the lead. Hope they really do. My contacts in Samsung India are not even aware of this and I guess this is more likely to remain a rumour, though I sincerely hope it does not.
