(TSXV: YOO) (OTC Pink: YOOIF) ("Yangaroo," "Company"), a software leader in media asset workflow solutions for the advertising and entertainment industries, and WideOrbit, a leading advertising and commercial operations platform today announced a joint partnership. WideOrbit is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Lumine Group, a Canadian listed company which in turn is a part of the Constellation Software Inc (CSI) ecosystem, a multi-billion-dollar global public company. This collaboration entails a certified integration between Yangaroo's asset management and delivery platform and WideOrbit's Electronic Material Instructions module within their flagship ad sales and commercial operations platform, WO Traffic. The integration facilitates a seamless end-to-end automated exchange of traffic instructions, effectively eliminating errors and saving valuable time for advertisers and broadcasters.
Grant Schuetrumpf, CEO of Yangaroo, explained, "The API integration between Yangaroo and WideOrbit delivers instant benefits to all advertisers and broadcasters using our platforms. The smooth and immediate exchange of data between the platforms represents a substantial enhancement for all stakeholders involved in managing real-time responses and confirmations when advertisers submit traffic instructions to broadcasters across the USA."
Susie Hedrick, President and Managing Director of Traffic Systems at WideOrbit, stated, "Our partnership with Yangaroo underscores WideOrbit's dedication to delivering comprehensive tools that better connect TV broadcasters and advertisers, ultimately simplifying day-to-day tasks.
