To begin with, Maruti Suzuki and NDTV Car and Bike have come on board as partners in the Asia Pacific. ‘Sponsored Moments’ give advertisers the ability to add a branded cover image to the ‘Moments’ in question as well as insert their own brand’s tweets into the round-up. For publishers, ‘ **Moments** ’ is an end-to-end solution for publishing and monetising all forms of content on the micro-blogging platform, including Tweets, photos, videos, and GIFs. It also allows publishers produce and tell stories about events easily. ‘Sponsored Moments’ are an extension of ‘In-Stream Video Sponsorships’ which are customised programmes where brands and publishers are paired up on a one-on-one basis.
