Nick, founder and MD of EventBeat, said: "Brands such as Coca-Cola are creating digital content in-house and their customers are generating unique content on social media. The problem that these global brands have, is that until now it has been almost impossible to collate all of this content and present to a targeted audience in a timely manner

"EventBeat has removed this frustration by developing an innovative digital engagement platform that is disrupting the traditional digital signage market by enabling users to search moderated social media content, upload digital advertising and then publish it instantly to screens and websites at the click of a few buttons. All this can be done from a single location, on a PC or any mobile device, by using our software which clients access via the cloud."

Founded in February 2013 by Nick Johnson, over the past two years EventBeat has established a reputation not only within the UK but also across Europe. EventBeat has already secured contracts with the likes of Coca-Cola, IBM, Vodafone, Lloyds Bank and Barclays Premier League.

Nick Johnson, 29, (middle in the picture) the founder of the company grew up in Bowdon Vale where he attended Altrincham Grammar School for Boys. His ambition is to establish the local area as a leading hub of technology and innovation.
