GlobeCast will be announcing the launch of its new African DTH satellite platform, as well as other recent expansions in terms of coverage and services, at the first Satellite MENA in Dubai next month.

At stand C3-21, the content management and delivery company will also be highlighting recent developments in its global distribution and contribution services for broadcast. Also to be highlighted at Satellite MENA is GlobeCast’s recent acquisition of NETIA, a specialist in content management software.  An animation on the GlobeCast stand will allow the visitor to see the creation of a channel from contribution all the way through to playout and distribution, including information on NETIA’s software and how it facilitates this process.  With local offices on five continents and a global satellite and fibre distribution network, GlobeCast offers tailor-made solutions for specific broadcast requirements. Hundreds of channels are entrusted to GlobeCast every year, among them long-term partners in the Middle-East such as Arabsat and ASBU for worldwide distribution of an Arabic programs bouquet, Al Jazeera International, Abu Dhabi TV and many others.
