Customer story spotlights
Shifting perception and reimagining corporate storytelling
Nueva Economía Fórum (NEF), a leading organization for promoting dialogue on social issues, hosts over 200 events yearly. Come 2019, the coronavirus pandemic forced them to do a rethink on their events strategy. Although online viewing became the norm, keeping audiences engaged was still a tough ask.
Faced with these challenges, the goal was clear. A scalable, TV-quality hybrid production that connects remote and in-person audiences, while maintaining the same standard of experience. Enter the TriCaster. Now, NEF has a platform as ambitious as its mission to drive meaningful communication. Dive into the full story here.

How Blazers’ broadcasts benefit from Vizrt graphics tech

Since teaming up with us back in 2001, starting with just the animated scorebug, Portland Trail Blazers have ramped things up dramatically. Now, armed with tools like Viz Arena, Viz Libero, and Viz Engine, they’re delivering engaging AR-driven broadcasts, dynamic stat visuals, and next-level 3D replays that immerse fans and sponsors alike.
