Convergence is the coming together of disparate technologies, but also the phenomenon of technologies developed for one purpose being used in many different contexts. We at i-Context offer products and services that facilitate the convergence of technologies and content, helping you to thrive in a world where voice, data and video come together and information delivery combines with entertainment and learning.

Convergence is all around us; a decade ago we had specific devices for handling specific types of content. We used tape decks or radios to listen to music, played video cassettes to watch movies, floppy disks to store data on, telephones for voice and fax or telex to send text based messages. With the convergence of media and technology, most devices now combine most or all of these communication and entertainment features, so people expect to be able to access a given content item from whatever device they prefer to use.

A customer may prefer to use her computer to watch a video clip when in office, use the video-on-demand feature of her IPTV from the comfort of her home and use her mobile phone instead, when on the move. To successfully reach everyone and at any time in this converged world, you need to have a platform that can provide anytime, anywhere access using any device.
