For a business to be successful in the modern world, it has to constantly evolve, innovative and adapt to the times — this is why this concise list of November 2018 new ventures highlight the imaginative ways, in which companies are engaging their consumer base.
A potent example of how interactive frameworks are affecting the entertainment industry is the upcoming season of cult-favorite TV show Black Mirror. Netflix recently announced it was switching its mode of presentation to interactive programming with choose-your-own-adventure-style Black Mirror episodes. In doing so, the streaming service not only dares to venture into uncharted territory, but it also is willing to explore and evolve storytelling within the boundaries of the medium.
