New Start-Up STATION Launches Self-Broadcasting App at Collision Conference
Changes how users discover and share what's happening around them
LAS VEGAS, May 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Station, a San Diego-based technology start-up, announced at today's Collision conference the availability of its new mobile and web-based platform that enables users to answer the question "what's happening around me?" like never before.
STATION is a revolutionary mobile communications and broadcasting platform that turns any smartphone into a powerful local discovery and broadcasting tool. The free mobile app enables users to search what's happening around them in real-time, and also share LIVE or recorded audio and video, pictures, and text, all linked to a specific location.
"Station is one of those disruptive companies that will change the way people think about, access and interact with information in and about any location of interest to them," said Sinan Kanatsiz, Chairman of the Internet Marketing Association.
Founded in 2013 by seasoned technology veteran and entrepreneur Jake Jacoby, STATION currently has several thousand users interacting with over 500,000 stations around the globe. The company is participating at the Collision Conference for the first time this year, and has earned a spot in the "START" start-up category, representing the group of most senior level start-ups at the conference.
"STATION taps into the local pulse of a location," said Jake Jacoby, CEO of STATION. "Until now, people had no way of finding or accessing this information. In many ways, STATION does for local discovery what Google has done for global search."
The STATION platform is different from other search and social media tools by creating a digital and social-enabled version of the physical world around users, thereby enabling them to quickly and easily search and discover what's going on in the places they care about.
With the STATION app on their phones, users can:
- Search locations and see activity
- Share content linked to a location
- Share live video, photo, and audio
- Create ephemeral content
- Interact publicly or anonymously
The new STATION app is now available for FREE DOWNLOAD in Apple iTunes and Google play. For more information on STATION, visit stationlocal.com.
