"The Globe and Mail is committed to delivering news to our readers when they need it and how they want it, and this use of SMS alerts is only the latest in a string of mobile initiatives underway at The Globe as we embrace the changing nature of news delivery,” said Angus Frame VP of Digital at The Globe and Mail.
This groundbreaking mobile news delivery initiative, on behalf of Broadplay and The Globe and Mail, was sparked by the monumental scope and significance of the political event set to storm in Toronto. With extensive security underway for the city, anticipated road closures, protests – not to mention significant discussions taking place on critical world issues by an unprecedented number of leaders in one location, rapid and open communications were deemed essential, both for Torontonians and those following the proceedings from across the nation.
“With the G20 Summit Mobile, we are democratizing news delivery so that everyone, regardless of cell phone brand, has free and fast access,” says Broadplay president Marcus Anderson. “We applaud our partner, The Globe and Mail, for stepping up as bold pioneers in the timely SMS text application… it’s a significant Canadian first in mobile news delivery.”
