Hai Media Group is now supporting HipLogic with PR services in Europe, introducing media to the popular HipLogic Live application, a free download for Symbian, Windows Mobile and Android handsets, that CEO Mark Anderson describes as being an “extreme makeover” for your phone that will deliver an iPhone-like content experience.
HipLogic’s CEO Mark Anderson
HipLogic Live pulls content from real-time sources like Facebook, Twitter, Sky, Disney, Sports, Weather, newsfeeds and more, through a smartphone-like interface. It works by delivering push content notifications to the phonetop without using SMS. This means that they bring the world of applications, widgets, live search and real-time notifications to mass market handsets, without the need to invest in a new smartphone.
You just need one, simple, free download. The technology relies on a JavaScript virtual machine running on the device that is connected to the cloud that aggregates information and feeds from network operators and the Web to create mash-ups for use on Symbian, Windows Mobile and Android mobile devices. The aim is to provide always-on, fast access and logical presentation of content and applications that can be cumbersome to access through current mobile phone browsers – especially on multimedia-phones.

Lisa Devaney, head of the Hai Media Group consultancy, was invited to shadow blog alongside veteran fashion catwalk show producer Sara Blonstein, who heads event production company Blonstein & Associates, during London Fashion Week 2010.
Devaney watched Blonstein in action at the Fashion East show, and was impressed by the creative venue she transformed for the catwalk experience at Somerset House. Staged in a space that were former burial vaults, the venue made for one of the most exciting shows of the week.

Hai Media Group’s Director Lisa Devaney is now a trainer with Pinnacle PR, the world’s largest specialised international public relations training company, offering introductory and advanced seminars in public affairs, media relations, crisis communications, event organisation and more.
Devaney is offering full and half day seminars for PR 2.0 training, helping participants from Europe, the Middle East and Africa, understand how to approach and use the Web for public relations campaigns. Her course is influenced by the teachings of Brian Solis, Beth Harte and other leading PR 2.0 professionals. The course looks at the pros and cons of online communications and provides strategic insight for “future-proofing” business communications. The course also provides instruction on using online tools, finding resources, as well as basic skills training for using social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook and Linkedin for business.
As millions of people increasingly use the Internet to communicate, businesses are looking to craft appropriate ways of connecting with key stakeholder audiences online, and looking to experienced online communicators to avoid pitfalls. As of summer 2009, more than 250 million people are members of Facebook, and more than 33 million are using Twitter, two of the most popular social networking sites. Devaney shares case studies with course participants, taking a look at some of the blunders, as well as the successes, companies are currently having online.
Pinnacle PR has attractive training facilities in London, Brussels, Dubai and Bahrain, and each location is fully equipped for presentations, and media relations on-camera training. Seminars are kept to a limited size to create an engaged learning environment, with participants asking questions throughout the courses. The seminars include hands-on workshop sessions that put new skills into action, and best prepare participants for real world public relations issues. All of Pinnacle PR’s trainers are senior public relations professionals, who have real world working experience, and continue to work in the industry.

Hai Media Group Summer 2009 Intern
“I am 24 and I am going to be senior at London Metropolitan University in the autumn. I was looking for a great internship programme that would give me the chance to learn from experts in my intended career field, public relations/communications. I also wanted to gather relevant information, which can serve as foundation for my dissertation.
In today’s world, which puts emphasis on the use of new media and social networking sites, it is not surprising that Lisa Devaney offered me PR 2.0 internship with Hai Media Group directly via Twitter. The internship provides me with a fantastic opportunity to gain hands-on experience of working for a small yet very busy multimedia communications consultancy. I hope to expand my knowledge of the online PR industry and to develop the right skills to become a PR practitioner.”
