"BrightTALK builds professional communities around published content, such as the latest trends from thought leaders, to create a channel for interactive experiences. The platform connects nearly 10 million registered professionals who actively engage with live and recorded talks," said Melanie Turek, VP of Research and Fellow in the Connected Work group. "By performing the dual roles of hosting and broadcasting online events, the company has established itself as a valuable demand generation tool that supplies engaged leads for content marketing campaigns."

The platform supports clients’ needs with self-service webcams, presentations, screen sharing, polls, questions, and attachments, while BrightTALK’s white-glove, managed services team ensures that custom events go off without a hitch. BrightTALK’s live streaming technologies evolved from Windows Media, Flash, HTML5, and HLS streaming standards to real-time communication standards (i.e., WebRTC) with cloud computing. Furthermore, it leverages Big Data and AI capabilities to draw insights from both audience and content creator activity and behavior to offer accurate watch list recommendations. Ada, BrightTALK’s AI-driven promotional engine, provides recommendations to ensure audiences are introduced to the most relevant content. Additionally, its low cost of entry and ease-of-use make it highly attractive to a wide cross-section of users.

BrightTALK is interoperable with numerous marketing automation and customer relationship management platforms such as Marketo, Eloqua, Hubspot, Salesforce, and Pardot as the company recognizes the value of having a partner ecosystem of tools and technologies. The majority of BrightTALK’s employees functioning within marketing, community, sales, success, and support teams are both users and customers of the company’s technology, leveraging their hands-on experience to provide better client and product support.

"Along with embracing continuous learning and adapting to new technologies, BrightTALK’s executive team encourages the sharpening of soft skills such as creativity, critical thinking, communication, and empathy," noted Turek. "By championing and enabling creative thinking and collaborative innovation, the company has positioned itself to drive teamwork and achieve long-term growth."
