Executive Interviews is a one-stop shop for businesses’ online video needs, providing services to the world’s leading business channels and many of the world's best-known companies and financial institutions.
They have achieved significant improvements in productivity thanks to a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) with the Computing Department of the OU's Mathematics, Computing and Technology Faculty.
The OU and Executive Interviews worked together for over two years to research and develop internet media capture and deployment databases and applications, in order to streamline production activities.
'The Open University is Europe’s largest university, and their global knowledge of developments in our area of operations meant that we could aim for, and deliver, systems we could only have dreamt of otherwise. With the knowledge at their disposal and the talent they brought to bear, they simply dissolved problems we would have found insuperable and enabled us to make these ideas real.'
