The Award was accepted by GoodMood's Chief Executive Officer, Olli Ilmolahti who said: "We are delighted that GoodMood WIP’s innovative contribution to stakeholder communications has been recognized in this way. And with clients such as Hewlett Packard and Fujitsu-Siemens already using it on a day-to-day basis we are obviously on the right track. In the UK we have developed a strategic partnership with leading online communications company, twofourtv, and together I believe we provide the most sophisticated webcasting service on offer anywhere." Charles Wace, twofourtv's CEO commenting on the award said: "This is timely recognition for a technology which is revolutionising the way businesses communicate, We have teamed up with GoodMood because GoodMood WIP offers by far the best solution for broadcasting on company intranets. GoodMood WIP is a fantastically easy-to-use global platform for communication." Paul Tarplee, twofourtv's Chief Technology Officer added: "The great thing about the GoodMood WIP technology is that it allows organizations to take control of their own webcasts. In my opinion no other product does this so effectively. Its centralized architecture means anyone can create content or view a webcast through their web browser. And what makes it unique is its scalability - from webcasting regular briefings to setting up video-conferencing from desktops - it gives companies complete control over the publishing process, security and reporting tools."
