Seidor Italy Announces its Partnership with Panopto to Accelerate Innovation in Public Education

LONDON – Seidor Italy srl, a well-known Italian company, part of the tech multinational Seidor, specializing in the creation of virtual learning environments and digital communication systems, and Panopto, the market leader in Video Management Systems, announce their partnership for the distribution of Panopto in Italy.

Panopto is a video management system created with the aim of providing universities with a simple and reliable solution to manage, webcast and record video. Recognized by Gartner since 2014 as an industry leader, Panopto has created a scalable, secure and easy to use a video platform that any teacher, staff, or student can use regardless of their previous experience.

Whether you want to broadcast live classes, record lectures or manage content in a secure cloud, edit videos or integrate them into LMS e-learning platforms or web portals, Panopto has developed an easy to use tool.

Alessandro Plantamura, Head of Education of Seidor Italy, analyzes the context in which this partnership is born:

“We are going through a moment of paradigm change. The emergence of Covid-19 has been a powerful accelerator of digital technologies for training and for communication, involving the need for agile and simple video platforms. The real change that the organizations we collaborate with are not technological, in the tool used to generate and manage video content, but in the usability and accessibility of the content. The video becomes the key tool to learn, interact, collaborate and use information necessary for training or work. How do you put the user at the center? Panopto meets this need with a universal and easy to manage tool.”

Panopto’s EMEA General Manager, Peter Ingle, stated:

“We have seen sharp growth in the implementation of digital platforms that enable remote learning at Europe’s leading universities, and it is a source of pride to see Seidor Italy and Panopto join forces to help support the Italian education community.”

Seidor Italy has successfully accompanied Panopto in the rigorous qualification process of SaaS technology for AgID Cloud Marketplace, of the Agency for Digital Italy. Panopto is currently the only AgID qualified video content management platform and is available for use in any sector of Italian public education.
