CPB Funding for the Online Video Engagement Experience

The Board of Directors of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) unanimously approved a resolution authorizing funding to the Independent Television Service (ITVS) for the expansion of the Online Video Engagement Experience, or OVEE.

OVEE is a digital engagement platform that allows public broadcasting stations, local organizations, educators, and other key public broadcasting constituents to conduct live, online screenings of most PBS programs while interacting with participants live and in real time. CPB support will increase the flexibility of OVEE, allowing stations to take advantage of the rapid growth of tablet and smart phone use, and extend the impact of the online PBS video library.
