Next-Gen Digital Media, Building Conglomerates Upon Evolving Technology

Sep 16, 2021

NetworkNewsWire Editorial Coverage: The evolution of media and advertising dates back to ancient societies carving on rock. Ironically, carving on a rock is probably about as effective today as an email blast, which was all the rage only a few years ago. Hard to fathom where digital media and advertising will be in another 5,000 years, but safe to say that future innovations will continue to build upon technologies evolving today. The industry moves so fast based upon consumer trends that steadily cross inflection points and determine the history of modern digital media. It is clear that the new era of digital media will redefine how brands connect with consumers, as innovation pushes the boundaries in digital media strategies to make advertising personal and native like nothing seen before. Email marketing is dead and taking static banner ads with it, replaced by more intelligent and fluid technologies supported by artificial intelligence. This next generation of digital media is being spearheaded by companies such as DGTL Holdings Inc. (TSX.V: DGTL) (OTCQB: DGTHF) (Profile) with its strategy to build a digital media conglomerate in the categories of social, mobile, gaming and streaming. DGTL has begun with a comprehensive software solution platform in the social category complete with innovative content, measurement and distribution solutions, alongside engagement and communication tools and the technology designed specifically for identifying the most-efficient strategies. Companies know that consumers are ultra-savvy and intolerant of meaningless ads, which is driving business to DGTL. Other savvy companies, including Constellation Software (TSX: CSU) (OTC: CNSWF), Magnite Inc. (NASDAQ: MGNI), ESE Entertainment Inc. (TSX.V: ESE) and LOGIQ Inc. (OTCQX: LGIQ), are seeing opportunities for growth and evolution in their respective industries, often acquiring…

Obiena-Lafferty combination a true gold standard

Obiena-Lafferty combination a true gold standard

MANILA, Philippines — When two winners meet, it always ends up beautifully and results in a second to none situation. Asian pole vault king Ernest John “EJ” Obiena and longtime adviser James Michael Lafferty have been together through thick and thin over the past decade; and prior to Aichi-Nagoya 20th Asian Games men’s pole vault competition the two had their own playful competition challenging one another. A mere two days before EJ’s title-retention drive in Asian Games, Lafferty would be competing also in the Raw Powerlifting World Championships 2026 men’s 60-64 age group division in Ashland, Virginia, USA with a promise that Obiena needed to match. “I am so really happy for EJ for retaining the gold in the Asian Games plus resetting a new Asiad record. And I knew, I believed that he could do it of course, so we made a deal. If I won the gold in powerlifting, EJ had to win the gold as well at the Asian Games,” Lafferty, 63, said. “The loser, if there is one, would pay for a dinner in Dubai in October.” Lafferty captured three gold medals in men’s 60-64 age group, dominating the strict arm curl, bench press, and push pull, which is a bench press plus deadlift in a combined total. Over 500 lifters qualified from around the globe and competed across 4 days this past week. Well, there was no loser between the two gentlemen after Obiena rocked the Nagoya City Mizuho Park Athletics Stadium in Japan with a new 5.91 meters record that won him back-to-back Asian Games gold medals, since dominating the Hangzhou games three years ago with his prior 5.90m record. “EJ has proven himself the best pole vaulter in Asia for the second time. He is also a three-time Asian Champion, a two-time Olympian, fourth place among the best in Paris Olympics despite a spinal fracture that certainly impacted his performance. I honestly have never been more proud than of EJ and what he endured in Paris. He is the definition of toughness” added Lafferty. Lafferty is an American business executive and athletics coach who served already as chief executive officer for Fine Hygienic Holding, previously held regional CEO positions at Procter & Gamble, Coca-Cola Company, and British American Tobacco. That was the hidden gold medal wager of Obiena and his mentor. Two men, two friends, and confidantes agreed to a gold standard performance, and they did it and now both will share the bill in their upcoming dinner in Dubai. TMT

NBA close to picking new $12-13B Vegas team owners — report

NBA close to picking new $12-13B Vegas team owners — report

LOS ANGELES — The NBA will choose owners for a new Las Vegas team "in the very near future," with a whopping $12-13 billion price tag for the franchise rights plus the cost of a new arena, ESPN reported Tuesday. The basketball league is currently eyeing two new teams in Las Vegas and Seattle, bringing the total number of NBA clubs to 32, potentially as soon as 2028. According to ESPN, a shortlist of three bidders remains for the Las Vegas team, including one bid spearheaded by Walmart heiress Nancy Walton Laurie. Another is led by Canadian billionaire Steve Apostolopoulos, and a third by Vegas Golden Knights ice hockey team owner Bill Foley. The NBA Board of Governors voted to explore the Las Vegas and Seattle markets in March, with formal approval for the expansions expected by December. A purpose-built new basketball arena at the southern end of the Strip has been widely mooted for the Las Vegas bid, though Knights owner Foley has also proposed adapting his NHL team's T-Mobile Arena. Las Vegas already hosts the off-season NBA Summer League, and the T-Mobile Arena hosted the semi-finals and finals of the first three editions of the mid-season NBA Cup. But the city — which boasts the NFL Raiders franchise and will soon welcome an MLB side — has never had its own NBA team. The Seattle team would be expected to play at the Climate Pledge Arena, home to the Kraken ice hockey team and on the site of the home of the former Seattle SuperSonics NBA team, which relocated to Oklahoma City in 2008. A decision on Seattle team owners would take place at a later date.

Klay Thompson embraces new challenge in 1st season with Heat

Klay Thompson embraces new challenge in 1st season with Heat

BOCA RATON, Florida — Klay Thompson's legacy was secured long ago. He was part of four championship teams with Golden State, is one of the best shooters the NBA has ever seen, holds the league's single-game record for 3-pointers made and is surely headed to the Basketball Hall of Fame. He wants more. And that's why the Miami Heat pounced quickly when the 36-year-old Thompson was bought out by the Dallas Mavericks over the summer. They're convinced that Thompson still has much to offer and will flourish on a new-look Heat with Giannis Antetokounmpo teaming up with Bam Adebayo. “I want to be able to look back one day and say I gave it everything I had,” Thompson said Tuesday after his first training camp practice with the Heat, held at Florida Atlantic University. “And I think being with the Heat, it gives me that opportunity. They’re wholly committed to winning. And I've said this before: winning trumps any individual performance I’ve ever had. To be a part of a season of chasing that goal is special.” Thompson's resume is almost beyond compare. He's made at least 200 3-pointers in a season 11 times; that's second-most in NBA history behind his former Golden State teammate and “Splash Brother” Stephen Curry, who has 12 such seasons. With 2,899 career 3s, he's only 74 behind former Heat guard Ray Allen for No. 3 on the all-time list — and 101 away from the 3,000-made milestone, something only Curry and James Harden have surpassed. And here's one that not everyone might expect: Thompson — even without being a full-time starter — is also the only player in the NBA with at least 200 made 3s in each of the last four seasons. He made 202 last season in Dallas, despite playing a career-low 21.7 minutes per game. “What Klay’s done in this league, I think should be celebrated and respected in our locker room — which it is," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. “We can take from those experiences. And I think also he can be excited about this possibility of a new experience to be able to create hopefully something similar, but in a different way and a different locker room and different culture.” The general perception is that Thompson will play a role similar to what Allen played in the Heat era that featured LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. If defenders help off Thompson, it's likely that they'll pay by leaving one of the best shooters in the world — someone who doesn't need much time to get a shot off — open. And if they don't help off him, that's just going to make life easier for Adebayo, Antetokounmpo and everyone else in Heat colors. “We've got former champions,” Heat guard Davion Mitchell said. “They know what it takes to win.” Thompson is about to enter his 14th season, not counting two missed because of injury. He’s a career 41% shooter from beyond the arc, is a five-time All-Star and has made at least 10 3s in a game on nine different occasions. And this summer, in a workout that led to a viral video from famed shooting coach Chris Brickley, Thompson made 72 consecutive shots from beyond the arc. “It’s a good feeling,” Thompson said, “but I would rather make 10 in a row in an NBA game.” The Heat would like to see that as well. They always have championship aspirations, but the changes to the roster this summer — adding Antetokounmpo, another knockdown shooter in Tim Hardaway Jr., Bobby Portis and Thompson, among others — make those hopes quite legitimate, even with Miami competing against a loaded Eastern Conference. “I hopefully one day get the chance to be in the Hall, but before that I still feel like I have so much left to give this game,” Thompson said. “The records even matter to me. I want to still climb up the record books because I’m such a basketball junkie. I grew up watching Ray Allen, Reggie Miller, and those guys inspire me to shoot the ball every single day. And the fact that I have a chance to pass Ray in a Heat uniform, that gives me so much motivation to keep going.”
