In tough times of quarantine, social distancing and anxiety generated by the news, we can be thankful for all the entertainment options available, which provides us relief and brings us some lightness to the daily routine.

At NMA, we also believe in the powerful alliance between producing fun, engaging content while sharing informative, relevant messages. Meet the startups that are here to spice up media entertainment:

Where tech meets magic

Zaubar is making it possible for media companies to experiment with augmented reality technology to come up with projects that engage the audience. They have partnered up with Tagesspiegel to produce a virtual tour around Berlin to commemorate the fall of the wall. This month, Zaubar has teamed up with the famous German TV Show “Verstehen Sie Spass” by broadcaster SWR and turned the host, Guido Cantz, into a digital avatar.
