NTT DOCOMO Ventures Invests in Genvid Technologies

NTT DOCOMO Ventures, Inc. (headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo, Japan and led by President and CEO, Takayuki Inagawa; hereinafter “NDV”) has invested in Genvid Technologies, Inc., headquartered in New York, USA and led by President and CEO, Jacob Navok.

Genvid provides game developers worldwide with the most powerful interactive streaming capabilities available, while increasing opportunities across new platforms with its innovative technology.

Today, there is growing interest in livestream gaming and e-sports where players are attracting increasingly large audiences on a global scale. Traditionally, these audiences have been merely spectators, but with Genvid, viewers can now participate and directly affect the game experience and outcome. As a result, developers can benefit from new revenue streams and ways to monetize their games through livestream broadcasting on popular platforms.

The investment in Genvid enables both NTT Group companies that provide livestreaming and VR platforms as well as game content to accelerate the development of industry-changing opportunities in the marketplace.

NTT DOCOMO Ventures will continue to promote collaborations with startups and the development of new services based on NTT Group’s advanced technologies, as a part of the Group’s ongoing endeavors that address social issues and create new value for customers through innovation.
