Instant content creation and distribution with Wildmoka

Backlight is crucial to the International Tennis Federation’s video content distribution strategy.
Our goal is to ensure fans can access and engage with content on their preferred social media platforms and that our partners have access to the content they need. Wildmoka makes this a reality. To put things into context, since integrating Wildmoka, we’ve scheduled 457 events to 39 distinct destinations. In 2023 alone, a couple of non-technical colleagues easily scheduled 188 live broadcasts, delivering 166 events to various social media platforms, and garnered 4.23 million views. It’s a level of engagement and reach we wouldn’t be able to achieve as effortlessly without Wildmoka’s video programming and wide destination capabilities at our fingertips.
