Will.i.am picks 7digital for smartwatch talks
Few investors had ever heard of 7digital (7DIG) until the little-known digital music and radio platform provider made this weekend's press. And the company has now confirmed it is in talks with Will.i.am about delivering the music service on a new smartwatch being launched by the musician, judge on BBC talent show The Voice, and tech entrepreneur. Now 7digital shares are as popular as their fashionable partner.
"The potential contract would further underpin the company's revenue expectations," said 7digital in a brief statement Monday, just as daily trading volumes for the shares hit a record high with half a day’s trading still to go.
Clearly, this is big news for 7digital, which reversed into AIM-listed UBC Media Group in June. Will.i.am, also frontman for The Black Eyed Peas, is incredibly high profile and there's a good chance some of his success will rub off on the small British company.
