Auckland, NZ - January 20th, 2015 – Movio, the global leader in customer intelligence and targeted marketing software for the film industry, is a finalist in the New Zealand International Business Awards.

The awards recognise companies that impact the international business community through leadership, innovation, vision and tenacity. They are presented by NZTE, New Zealand’s international business development agency, with support from strategic partner ANZ, one of New Zealand’s leading banking and financial services groups.

Movio is nominated in the “ANZ Best Business Operating Internationally” category. Company CEO and Co-Founder, Will Palmer, is nominated in the “Excellence in Leadership” category. Winners will be announced at the prestigious black tie awards ceremony on March 25, 2015 at Sky City Convention Centre in Auckland.

Under Mr. Palmer’s direction, Movio is recognised as the global leader in marketing data, analysis, insights, and campaign creation and management for theatrical exhibitors, studios and distributors. The underlying premise driving Movio's growth is the increasing realisation by the film industry that the (big) data generated about moviegoers at point-of-sale are invaluable assets.

Movio's software solutions make it faster and cost-efficient for exhibitors to analyse and use that data and execute personalised campaigns to their customers. Movio’s latest development aggregates data across a region to provide film distributors and studios comprehensive market data, providing crucial audience insights.

"Our vision is to revolutionise the way the film industry interacts with viewers, increase box office revenue and improve the quality of content produced," said Mr Palmer. "We are thrilled and honoured that our data-driven approach has been recognised as worthy of consideration from the New Zealand International Business Awards.”
