Intertainment Media: Realizing Success in Social Media
ACCESSWIRE-TNW - Fri Dec 21, 11:31AM CST
SOURCE: VantageWire.com -- It's been a busy week for technology group Intertainment Media (TSXV: INT). The firm punctuated its AGM late last month by announcing both a purchase and a sale; it's selling off one of its first investments itiBiti for $3.5M to a private technology group, while also bidding for the assets of its partner, Poynt Corporation. This sees the firm exit its first technology acquisition, having evolved itiBiti into a social media platform well beyond its initial scope. And if the Poynt bid - made in conjunction with another partner - goes through, it'll see INT.V bolster its presence in another key area; advertising and geolocation.
