CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 7, 2010—Brightcove Inc., the leading online video platform, continues to contribute significantly to the growth of online video initiatives of De Agostini Editore, a major Italian publishing group. One year after launching DeAbyDay.tv, the Web TV site of De Agostini Editore, on the Brightcove platform, DeAbyDay has largely increased the flow of on line users and has grown to include eight popular topic channels.

The Brightcove platform enables De Agostini Editore to easily publish and distribute high quality, advertising-supported “how to” video content on DeAbyDay.tv and across other Digital De Agostini properties. Through Brightcove’s advanced social sharing capabilities and ease of integration with leading advertising networks, De Agostini Editore is also able to rapidly expand its online audience.
