Fans of American College Football will soon be able to watch highlights of games on their desktops – Veoh Networks and Collegiate Images have teamed up to bring a dedicated NCAA football channel to Veoh.
Kicking off in September, the channel will also include a customized engine allowing users to personalise their football watching experience – this feature is still in development, but Veoh has said it will include unique and interactive elements.
It appears that the partnership is one of many that Veoh is seeking out to fulfill its mission. Ceo, Steve Mitgang, said:
“Moving forward, Veoh will continue to seek strategic partnerships with content providers, advertisers and publishers that advance our mission of making Veoh the most innovative and comprehensive video platform on the Internet.”
Veoh says its experiencing strong growth – it had a user base of over 14 million in June compared to 4 million in February.
Perhaps this is a sign that an iSuppli Report, covered on this site last month, will be a telling prophecy – it said sports and entertainment will be the biggest internet video genres within the next few years.
