In the evolving landscape of digital communication, a company named MSHOW emerged to provide webcasting and virtual event solutions. Founded by entrepreneur Ben Chodor, the company was also known as Stream57. It carved out a niche by offering customizable web event and streaming media services, finding significant traction within the healthcare and pharmaceutical sectors. The company's journey took a significant turn in late 2009 when it was acquired by InterCall, a major global provider of conferencing and collaboration services. This event marked a pivotal moment for both entities. For MSHOW/Stream57, it was validation of their technology and market position. For InterCall, the acquisition was a strategic move to bolster its portfolio beyond traditional conferencing, positioning itself as a leader in the growing virtual events market. Following the acquisition, founder Ben Chodor transitioned into a leadership role at InterCall, heading their global streaming and virtual events division, integrating his company's expertise into the larger corporation's extensive network.
