Consumers found Vuclip and started forwarding its videos via SMS messages to their friends. Early adopters started watching and sharing videos, leading to viral dissemination. Carriers like Vodafone and Airtel in India started finding Vuclip on their logs and started promoting it because it led to greater data consumption. Handset manufacturers started preloading the Vuclip launcher on their devices to make themselves more attractive to consumers.[4] Founders and investorsVuclip was incorporated as a Milpitas-based mobile video search company by Nickhil Jakatdar (Founder and CEO, Vuclip) and Xinhui Niu in July 2008.[5] The company raised $13 million in Series D, led by a new investor, SingTel Innov8 as the lead investor to further expand into new geographies and innovate on its platform.[6] Since inception in 2008, Vuclip has attracted more than $40 million in investment from outfits including U.S. venture capital firms New Enterprise Associates and Jafco Ventures and Singapore's SingTel Innov8.[7] In March 2015, PCCW Media, a Hong Kong-based Media and Entertainment Group acquired a majority stake in the company to enable it to expedite the roll-out of over-the-top (OTT) video services in the Asia Pacific region.[8] Business DevelopmentsVuclip opened a research and development (R&D) center in Pune, India in February 2015. This is Vuclip's first R&D center in India and its third globally, with the other two located in Silicon Valley and Beijing. The 15,000 square foot center in Pune includes a mobile lab supporting 8,500 different mobile devices from over 200 manufacturers.[9] ProductsVuclip App on Android,[10] Java,[11] Windows[12]m.vuclip.com[6]The mobile site delivers videos on any network and on any device without buffering. The browser-based approach ensures accessibility for consumers in emerging markets where penetration of smart phones is limited.{{citation needed|date=February 2017}} Vuclip's Global Mobile Video InsightsThe survey of more than 8,500 users spanning the emerging markets of India, the Middle East, South East Asia and Africa has revealed a growing propensity among mobile video consumers to view and navigate content in their native languages on a single over-the-top mobile app.[13] Although movies and television shows account for around 80 percent of the international content consumed on the Vuclip platform, 78 percent of Vuclip viewers in India have shown preference to watching content in their native language.[14] Thailand(88%) and Indonesia(87%) registered the highest percentage of 'Localized' mobile video content, while Malaysia(64%) registered the lowest among the markets surveyed. Navigation in native languages was considered most important in countries such as Indonesia(89%), Egypt(87%) and Thailand(86%). Respondents in Indonesia (91%), Kenya(90%) and Nigeria(90%) considered in aggregated mobile video platform/app important for accessing international and local content rather than downloading multiple apps.[15] AcquisitionsIn February 2013, Vuclip made its first acquisition; the mobile video company Jigsee,[16] to expand its own premium content inventory and app capabilities in India, one of Vuclip's biggest markets[17] Awards & RecognitionsMobby's Award for Best New App at the Mobile Digital and Marketing Summit [2013][17] Smarties India Award for the publisher/media company of the year [2013][18] Impact's Icons of India's Digital Ecosystem.[19] References1. ^1 {{cite news|url=http://www.casbaa.com/media-and-resources/news-center/casbaa-news/8051-pccw-embarks-on-strategic-expansion-of-ott-video-business|title=PCCW embarks on strategic expansion of OTT video business|publisher=Casbaa.com|accessdate=2015-03-11|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150316033922/http://www.casbaa.com/media-and-resources/news-center/casbaa-news/8051-pccw-embarks-on-strategic-expansion-of-ott-video-business|archive-date=2015-03-16|dead-url=yes|df=}} 2. ^{{cite news|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/2015/04/22/idUSnMKWSH9Wqa+1f4+MKW20150422|title= MBC and Vuclip Expand Strategic Partnership to Bring Exclusive Premium Content on Mobile for Audiences Across the Middle East | accessdate= 2015-04-22}} 3. ^{{cite news|url=http://telecom.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/devices/vuclip-releases-android-app-update/32295336|title= Vuclip releases Android app update | publisher= ET Telecom| accessdate= 2014-03-19 }} 4. ^{{cite news|url=http://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/article/vuclips-nickhil-jakatdar-bringing-must-mobile-video-emerging-markets/|title= Vuclip’s Nickhil Jakatdar: Bringing ‘Must-have’ Mobile Video to Emerging Markets | publisher= Knowledge@Wharton | accessdate= 2014-03-13}} 5. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.bizjournals.com/sanfrancisco/stories/2008/08/18/daily15.html|title= Name change for Milpitas mobile software firm | publisher= San Francisco Business Times | accessdate= 2008-08-19 }} 6. ^1 {{cite news|url=http://techcircle.vccircle.com/2012/11/15/vuclip-secures-13m-in-series-d-from-singtel-innov8-existing-investors/|title=Vuclip secures $13M in Series D from SingTel Innov8, existing investors | accessdate= 2012-11-15}} 7. ^{{cite news|url=https://variety.com/2014/biz/news/vuclip-strikes-bollywood-content-deal-with-balaji-1201256890/|title= Vuclip Strikes Bollywood Content Deal With Balaji | publisher= Variety | accessdate= 2014-07-02 }} 8. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.marketing-interactive.com/pccw-media-looks-beyond-hong-kong-vuclip-investment/|title= PCCW Media looks beyond Hong Kong with Vuclip investment | publisher= Marketing Interactive | accessdate= 2015-03-11 }} 9. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.telecompaper.com/news/vuclip-opens-randd-centre-in-india--1064411|title= Vuclip opens R&D centre in India | publisher= Telecompaper | accessdate= 2015-02-10 }} 10. ^{{cite web|url=https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vuclip.android&hl=en|title= Vuclip on Android }} 11. ^{{cite web|url=https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vuclip.android&hl=en|title= Vuclip on Java }} 12. ^{{cite web|url=https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vuclip.android&hl=en|title= Vuclip on Windows }} 13. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.exchange4media.com/digital/79-indian-viewers-prefer-mobile-video-app-with-native-language-navigabilityvuclip-survey_60238.html|title= 79% Indian viewers prefer mobile video app with native language navigability: Vuclip survey | publisher= Exchange4Media | accessdate= 2015-06-02 }} 14. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.aninews.in/newsdetail7/story218040/viewership-of-regional-mobile-video-content-rising-in-india.html|title= Viewership of Regional mobile video content rising in India | publisher= ANI News | accessdate= 2015-06-01 }} 15. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.vuclip.com/joomla/index.php?option=com_k2&view=item&id=195:viewership-of-regional-mobile-video-content-rising-in-india&Itemid=127|title= Viewership of Regional Mobile Video Content Rising in India | publisher= Vuclip.com | accessdate= 2015-06-01 }} 16. ^{{cite web|url=https://techcrunch.com/2013/02/14/mobile-video-startup-vuclip-buys-jigsee-to-target-emerging-markets-with-apps/|title=Mobile Video Startup Vuclip Buys Jigsee To Target Emerging Markets With Apps -
