LONDON (ShareCast) - (Sharecast News) - Podcast company Audioboom has launched a strategic partnership with NZME in New Zealand.
Audioboom said on Monday that NZME, the country's leading radio and digital media company, will monetise its 8,000 content channels in Showcase, its ad-tech-based product, in its role as the exclusive advertising representative for New Zealand-based brands and buyers.

New Zealand is an important territory for us, and I am excited to create new opportunities for brands to work with our creative talent and high-quality shows."
