We are glad to announce that InVID will be one of the exhibitors at the upcoming NEM Summit 2016. Dr. Lyndon Nixon from MODUL Technology, a member of the InVID consortium, will participate at the event in Porto, Portugal, on 23-24 November 2016. During these days the InVID technologies for finding user generated videos about news events online and for verifying them for their authenticity will be exhibited by Dr. Nixon to the attendees of this annual meeting of the New European Media (NEM) European Technology Platform (ETP), attracting media professionals and researchers from across Europe. Through the presentation of these technologies, the main concept of the InVID project that is about detecting emerging stories and assessing the reliability of newsworthy video files and content spread via social media for use in any media organization or creative industry, will be promoted.
