TimePlay Media develops interactive cinema games and content for movie theatres. By outfitting theatres with their Cinelynx System, audiences use handheld game controllers to interact with content on the big screen. The platform supports a portfolio of interactive content that appeals to existing consumers of box office entertainment and draws new consumers to the cinema where they can now enjoy interactive versions of their favourite pastimes (Bingo, Poker, Trivia, etc.). Jonathan Hussman's presentation and video demos impressed the audience and TimePlay appears to be on to something big with Deal or No Deal and CSI games under development for the US audience.
Brainpark's Mark Dowds presented a slightly toned down version of his StartUpCamp presentation to the VC-heavy audience. Side note - Crocs Founder George Bodecker is an investor in Brainpark.
