We seem to have had a very good Cannes with a lot of interest. It seemed quieter than usual but this did not affect our meetings. We had good reception on MovieSite and on our Blethr product for conferences and festivals.

Blethr-ing In Cannes!
Forres entrepreneurs David Sim and Geoff Wilcock will be proving to the world that they can get people talking as they launch a new software product, called Blethr, in Cannes next week.
Blethr will be launched at the internationally renowned film festival, and is designed to enable events, conferences and festivals to take advantage of the growth in social networks like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.
Blethr will provide a no-hassle package for event organisers, allowing them to get attendees, speakers and performers talking around an event using a combination of social networks, mobile phones and blogs. With the potential to record web-based communication about an event, Blethr can also extend the social and commercial value for event managers.
Blethr’s Project Director, David Sim, says it made sense to launch at one of the best known festivals. “Cannes is a huge event and, as well as providing a stunning backdrop in which to launch Blethr, it provides an opportunity for us to meet event organisers from around the world. During our time in Cannes, we will be Blethr-ing one or two conversations with important people in the film industry – and others! – demonstrating just how useful this application will be for events of all sizes around the world.”
The Blethr team already has meetings lined up with organisations from Malta, France, the Middle East and Ireland. In 2004 the team went to Cannes to launch MovieSite, a regional film marketing service, which has gone on to enjoy success across the UK, in Ireland and in the Middle East.
The name Blethr is derived from “blether”, and is designed to show the Scottish credentials. “Scots are known the world over for their friendliness and their sound business sense. Blethr is a fun and memorable name which plays up our Scottish background,” says David.
