Broadcast systems integrator VSC Design has been appointed to supply and install the new broadcast infrastructure for TV Zimbo which is to undergo a the construction of a new broadcasting centre at its headquarters in Luanda, Angola. TV Zimbo was Angola’s first independent TV channel and first started broadcasting in December 2008. VSC Design was key to the launch of the channel back then and has since provided on-going technical support for TV Zimbo.
These new facilities represent a considerable expansion and upgrade for TV Zimbo with the broadcaster moving to HD and tapeless operation and provision of facilities for a future second channel. The new broadcast centre will include a comprehensive newsroom with a NCRS, two studios, post production and continuity. The work also includes a post installation support contract, with VSC providing technical support both locally and from their UK base in Teddington, London.
VSC Design Managing Director Martyn Hales said: We are very pleased to have been awarded this contract. This is a significant upgrade and expansion of the current facilities and we look forward to working with TV Zimbo on this exciting new project.
