"GoFamer's analytic toolkit nicely complements Live Current Media's wider digital product portfolio," said Live Current CEO Mark Ollila. "Integrating the GoFamer platform into our products' backend system will allow us to harness valuable data that we will be able to offer our corporate and platform partners and Independent Creators. Tapping into powerful analytics and data that GoFamer can provide clients with while leveraging Live Current's recently acquired PowerSpike tools to engage users and provide control to creators will provide a unique feedback-loop within a tightly controlled B2B2C business model that Live Current is developing."
