BERLIN--(Business Wire)--
PLYmedia, (www.plymedia.com) a pioneer in enriching online video, was named a
winner of the Red Herring 100 Europe 2009 Award which distinguishes the top 100
private technology companies based in the EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa).
Most successful in increasing multilingual engagement and viewing time for EU
countries, PLYmedia's language and closed captioning solution, subPLY, enables
online publishers to target an audience beyond native English speakers. With an
"in mute" option to facilitate silent video viewing with closed captions,
publishers can further accommodate office space viewing and increase longer
viewing time. 

Essentially an interactive editorial tool, ProPLY optimizes use of the video
screen through various information overlays. European publishers can create or
use PLYmedia`s customizable overlay templates that link additional internal
content (editorial articles) or other web information of interest to the viewer.


"We are thrilled to be a winner of Red Herring`s top technology companies list.
A pioneer in enriching online video, PLYmedia`s overlaying technologies --
ProPLY and SubPLY -- will empower European online publishers and advertisers to
engage a greater audience and create new online revenues via sponsorship and
interactive advertising opportunities," said Ben Enosh, Co-founder of PLYmedia.
With R&D projects in Europe, PLYmedia is currently engaged in European research
and leading media services.
