IVCi Joins with Global Writes for 15th Annual Poetry Slam

IVCi's expertise in visual collaboration and Global Writes program development create a one-of-a-kind experience for students.

HAUPPAUGE, NY - February 1, 2011 - IVCi, LLC (www.ivci.com), a leading integrator of high-definition video conferencing solutions, telepresence systems, audio visual equipment, and managed conferencing services, announced today that it has teamed with Global Writes, a nonprofit organization whose mission is to promote literacy, communication and collaboration among young people through the integration of performing arts and technology resources, to help connect students in the 2011 Bronx Poetry Slam.

"The work that Global Writes does with students and technology is truly remarkable. Their annual poetry slam gives students a great opportunity to express themselves through poetry," said Robert Swing, CEO of IVCi. "IVCi is proud to provide the backend technology that makes it possible for schools to connect to one another and compete across multiple locations. This is truly what the technology is all about, empowering communication and expression in new and exciting ways."

Video bridging is a component to IVCi's Managed Conferencing Services and IVCi has donated the use of that bridge time to Global Writes to make it possible for multiple schools to connect to each other at the same time and participate in the competition. IVCi has made this donation for many years and has helped connect over 20 sites in the Bronx and many more around the world including Tokyo, Los Angeles, Chicago, and more.
