Multimedia and software developer PIVoD Technologies has signed a major deal with the Ontario Science Centre in Toronto to provide technology to a $40 million project
PIVoD chairman Phillip Jenkins said the deal was worth an estimated $800,000 in the initial stages of the project, which would run over six months.
“We don’t know what the total value of the contract is going to be,” he said.
Under the deal, the Nedlands-based firm will provide the technology part of the Ontario Science Centre’s $40 million ‘Agent of Change’ project.
Announcing the news, Mr Jenkins said the deal was an important milestone for PIVoD’s technology.
“We have put a lot of work into improving and refining the PIVoD Media Platform since its first installation during the late ’90s in the Singapore Discovery Centre,” Mr Jenkins said.
“With further developments necessary to meet the increasing demand for visual media of all types, from venues as diverse as the King Abdul Aziz Historical Centre in Saudi Arabia and the Australian Centre for the Moving Image in Melbourne.”
