The past few months have been amazing at Brainient. We’ve been partnering with companies, signing publishers, launching innovative platforms and having tons of fun while doing it.

And now, we’ve come to the point where we need to grow. So we’re hiring a few people to complete our team in London. We’re taking it one step at a time, so initially we want to find a kick ass Business Development Manager.

You can find the job details below. If you think you’re up to it, follow the instructions below and let us know why your the right person for the job!

Brainient is looking for a Business Development Manager to manage and maintain strategic relationships with Brainient’s key video partners and ensure that [...]

One of the things we strive to do here at Brainient is to make it as easy as possible for video publishers to start using our interactive video ad server (and focus on making money rather than technology).

Therefore, today we added two more video management platforms to our ‘officially supported platforms’ list: Ooyala and Kaltura.

We’re now officially the interactive video ad server with the most supported platforms & players: Youtube, Vimeo, Brightcove, Ooyala, Kaltura, Flowplayer & Longtail. If you’re using any of these, it won’t take you more than a couple of minutes to start running interactive video campaigns by using our ad server. It’s magic!

Of course, if you’re using your own player or video platform, you can [...]

We’ve kept a low profile here at Brainient in the past couple of months. It was not intentional, it was because we’ve been working like crazy on some top-secret stuff that will blow your mind. Or, at least we hope it will :) .

And what better way to announce the cool stuff we’ve been working on than live on stage at The Next Web 2010, right?

Without further ado, looking forward to mingle, present and party at The Next Web this year. See you there!

We’re very excited these days, because all the hard work in the past few months is finally paying off. We’re happy to have been invited by Chinwag and the UKTI to be part of the Digital Mission attending SXSWi next month.

As I’ve already told you a couple of times, we’ve been working like crazy in the past few months here at Brainient, just for you. We want to help you make more money with your video content, and we want to make sure it’s easy for you to do it.

Without further ado (we know you’ll love it anyway), I’d like to let you know that LayeredBrain, our monetization solution, now works with Vimeo, Youtube, JW player and Flow Player. Yep, that’s right ;) . Even better, it works for all your videos, even if you’ve uploaded them a year ago. You just integrate your Youtube account with your LayeredBrain account and you’re set.

Setting up is [...]

Last week I had the privilege to participate in a one week trip organized by the wonderful people at Seedcamp. I’ve blogged about it on my personal blog.

To sum up, I completely loved NY and I want to live there at one point, and I believe that the “Silicon” in Silicon Valley stands for Super Inteligent Lads Innovating, Creating and Originating Novelty.

I’ve also had the pleasure to meet the founder of Getty Images, Jonathan Klein, in a two hour meeting which was purely breathtaking. Enjoy.

And while I’ve been having all this fun, my wonderful team prepared some really cool stuff for you, which we’ll announce pretty soon. Stay tuned!

The wonderful people at Reuters wrote a very interesting article about young and ambitious companies moving their headquarters to London.

Emi Gal, Brainient’s CEO was interviewed by Reuter’s Kate Kelland and asked to talk about what determined him to move the company’s headquarters to the UK.

“London is pretty much the center of the world if you want to work in media and advertising”, he told them, and we believe that’s indeed, very, very true.

Feel free to go ahead and read the entire article, here.

And stay tuned, we have tons of news in the following weeks. While some of you have been sipping Pina Colada’s in Bora-Bora and others have been skiing St. Moritz, we’ve been working like crazy. And [...]

As most of the Romanian people reading this blog already know, yesterday was Elections Day in Romania. It’s that ‘let’s-now-choose-a-president-that-will-be-no-good’ thing that happens once in 5 years, but this time the main problem is we really don’t have whom to choose. I won’t go into a rigmarole on the subject though, ’cause I’m not really that much into politics.

What I am going to talk about is Realitatea.NET, the number one news TV channel (and the number one news website, as a matter of fact) in Romania. They’re using our Veevid platform to manage and distribute their video content over the internet. And yesterday, we had the supreme test. Most Romanians went to Realitatea.NET to view the exit-polls, which [...]

Today I spoke about what we’re up to at Brainient to a few people from eBay, PayPal, Skype and Gumtree, right in the beautiful eBay offices in Richmond, London.

The audience found the presentation highly interesting and entertaining, and they all agreed that TV Advertising as we know it is probably going to fade away, so I thought it’d be a good idea to share the presentation with you.

Without further ado ladies & gents, I believe there will be blood. Some slides might not make sense because I just used them to emphasis my speech, but the essential is there:

TV Advertising: There will be blood

Hey everyone. We’re still a little hungover here at Brainient, ’cause of the one-too-many glasses of champagne we’ve had yesterday. The reason? We won Seedcamp Week 2009.

It’s been a fantastic week. We got a lot of feedback, tons of connections, a few potential customers and, most important of all, we got the validation that we’re on the right track.

The main product we’ll be focusing on in the future is LayeredBrain, our tool that helps video publishers make more money with their video content.

I’d like to thank Alasdair, Reshma and Saul for making it all happen. I really think Seedcamp is one of those companies that will change the world.
