Living Indie live streams concerts, in London and Spain, to connected devices, offering a way for fans to connect through social media, while also handling the entire streaming process, from production to sales, marketing and distribution. After having developed their own platform, the company’s focus now was to optimise the user experience and making the site “stickier”. The focus, therefore, was on several key features such as user profiles, ranking systems, algorithms for music discovery and a crowdfunding mechanism for funding individual concerts.
