Sony BMG Music Entertainment and Dada, a leading international provider of web and mobile community and entertainment services, today announced the formation of a U.S. joint venture to be known as Dada Entertainment LLC.
The world’s online social networking craze has spawned
a new job category, and some of people who are managing the online communities are overseeing the wireless
ones as well.
Dada S.p.A, through its wholly owned New York-based subsidiary Dada Mobile Inc., a leader in the U.S. mobile entertainment and community services market, completed the acquisition of Upoc Networks Inc., a pioneer in the Internet and mobile value-added services market.
Universal point of contact
Setting the industry standard.
When Upoc launched in 1999, those four words put the New York-based text-messaging company on the mobile map. In those days, cross-carrier SMS wasn’t the norm, and Upoc moved the messages to make such communication possible.
With more than 3 million end-users chatting it up in our more than 40K groups, with one-way broadcast channels that enable music fans to receive on-the-go alerts about their favorite artists, and with interactive polls and quizzes further engaging customers, Upoc has remained a pioneer among the mobile communities market.
Moving forward, Upoc is distinguishing itself in new ways, establishing itself as a mobile services provider, creating custom applications like W To Go™ and Text 2 Win, expanding the ways companies can connect with consumers.
The future of Upoc, it seems, cannot be quantified in a tidy one-page introduction. Instead, we invite you to browse the breadth of this site and see it for yourself.
