Business Development
Visionradio members and associates have been, and continue to be involved
in a number of business consultancy projects and trials since 2000. The
main focus has been towards mobile and fixed communication networks and
the changing paradigms behind new content and service delivery.
An overview of some of our Business Development clients and projects is given
below, although preservation of client confidentiality limits detailed explanation.

Visionradio has been selected to perform a number of contracts with NTT DoCoMo European headquarters based in London. These have focused around conducting specific research and subsequent preparation of purposed reports and videos for use within the European and Japan offices of the company.
| Reports included detail on research methodology and marketing
processes used in the analysis. The work was carried out through Visionradio
partner WSA Associates. |
The 1 minute low resolution sample clip below was taken from a presentation video scripted, filmed, edited and published by Visionradio. The full quality 3 minute version was used to explain a UK service to a Japanese audience.

The requirements from Panasonic have been varied, and have included the development of web pages and purposed custom graphics. These have been used in support of the delivery of web services projects as well as for an interactive CD to demonstrate a new software product. More here.
Panasonic's European Headquarters also used some Visionradio content in pursuit of some digital radio DAB tests it was looking to perform over one of the London multiplexes. The first chapter of a cartoon book was created into an audio-visual slide show, used by the business development team within Matsushita Electric Europe (HQ) Ltd. This subsequently was used in full with ntl, outlined below.
In late 2003 Visionradio was engaged in a business development capacity for Panasonic Business Systems. The brief: to explore market potential for new products from Japan which did not have a ready home within the existing product divisions in the UK sales company. This culminated in securing a new business relationship for Panasonic supplying IP (Internet Protocol) products to BT.
| Furthermore the Visionradio team extended into investigating product and service bundles with the BT team, incorporating both the Panasonic IP cameras and various BT products. |

Following on from the initial work with Panasonic on DAB content as outlined above, early in 2004 Visionradio started work in collaboration with ntl to complete the cartoon book as an entire audio and video slideshow. The Visionradio cartoon content piece was used for testing over a digital radio multiplex.

In 2003 Visionradio became a Telemetry Associate, working with core members particularly on a UK government part sponsored programme via the DTI known as The Application Home Initiative (TAHI). This cross-industry and education body has its founding purpose "to accelerate the adoption of networked applications and services by connected home-based users". To this end it has spawned a number of trials to test a develop various hypotheses which may prove commercially attractive to both consumers and service providers.

In December 2001 Visionradio, in partnership with the 8 Corporation, embarked on a new style distribution initiative to the UK market for the Valusoft drag racing titles NHRA2 and subsequently NHRA Main Event.
A direct campaign in association with the main drag racing sites was launched at very low cost, and a custom tracking system employed for responses and orders from each site. All initial stocks of the launch title were sold. The elegant simplicity of the campaign was proving successful, but was very short lived, ceasing when Valusoft were bought out and restructured as a division of THQ.
