Mumbai, 8 January 2009 - BiigPiic.com, the world’s first business network exclusively devoted to Media & Entertainment business, was launched online today. BiigPiic revolves around member profiles and member-generated content like most business networks, so what’s new? According to Dilip Bhanushali, CEO: “Biigpiic is completely web 2.0 – social and with tagged content. Till now, the Media & Entertainment industry was catered to by web 1.0 directories, so BiigPiic is a refreshing change from those limitations”. Secondly, BiigPiic has been created specifically with the Advertising, Film, Fashion, Television, Radio, Publishing, Event industries in mind. According to Dilip, there was no portal, or web site that satisfied the needs of say, talent hunters, or location hunters, an acute need felt by film, television and advertising producers worldwide. BiigPiic fills that void. BiigPiic brings buyers and producers of media and entertainment services, under one roof. Members can create content in a variety of formats: Audio, Video, Images and Text to showcase their talent and skills. Members can also network with one another, advertise their needs, and interact through a variety of tools available to them. Users have the option to embed their content, from popular photo, audio and video-sharing sites, on BiigPiic. Membership on BiigPiic is free and comes with unlimited content embed opportunities for video, audio and photos. Paid membership is comparable to other sites in this genre and entitles members to additional file upload limits. Krishna Unni, Director, Pigtail Pundits, the firm which helped architect, design and build BiigPiic.com, says: “BiigPiic brims with business opportunities for media and entertainment professionals. Specifically for folks in art, illustration advertising, fashion, design, modeling, locations, films, broadcast, etc. They get a chance to showcase all their work in one place, be profiled extensively and be contacted easily. It’s the new age media professional’s business dream come true”. |
