MIAMI BEACH, Fla., Apr. 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Next Galaxy Corp. (OTC: NXGA), a leading developer of innovative content solutions and fully Immersive Consumer Virtual Reality (VR) technology, is pleased to announce that Next Galaxy President Mary Spio and University of Kentucky Men's Basketball head coach John Calipari were featured on Friday, April 24, 2015 in an interview with Pimm Fox on Bloomberg Business' "Taking Stock." 

In the segment, titled "Virtual Reality to Put You on the Bench Next to Coach Cal," Ms. Spio, Coach Calipari and Mr. Fox discuss the potential of Virtual Reality to bring sports fans to the arena to watch a game from any seat that they choose, including watching the game from Coach Calipari's view at the University of Kentucky's Rupp Arena that has been sold out in every game for decades.

Explaining what attracted him to VR and Next Galaxy, Coach Calipari commented on UK being an early adopter of social media to remain transparent and connected with their fans.  Always on the lookout for "What's next and then some," Coach Cal added, "In the next ten years, [VR] is going to change how we do things and I want to be on the front edge with my program; what we are doing to bring those families in." 

In addition to discussing the synergies between sports and VR, the interview prominently displayed Ceek™, Next Galaxy's VR platform, as well as Next Galaxy's Virtual Reality package, which includes Ceekars™, the world' first 4D audio headphones for use with VR devices, mobile VR controller, omni-directional microphone and a Google-inspired VR headset.
